Menopause is a universal experience for women, but there is a surprising lack of knowledge among clinicians about it and treatment options for menopause-related symptoms. United by a desire to educate clinicians in primary care and OBGYN, two obstetrician-gynecologists, Kimberly Vesco and Amanda Clark, along with family medicine physician Tovi Anderson, created the Practice Pearls Podcast: Menopause — six episodes ranging from 15-20 minutes — that busy clinicians can listen to at their convenience. This interesting series includes information on menopause, its symptoms, and treatment. Case studies are woven throughout. We hope the series advances your understanding and assists you in providing high-quality care for your patients.
