In this episode you'll meet Dr. Sunanda V. Kane! Dr. Kane is a professor of medicine at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota; physician chair of the Mayo Clinic Quality Academy’s Fellow Subcommittee; and assistant chair of patient experience in the Gastroenterology and Hepatology Division of the Mayo Clinic. She has a special and passionate interest in women and IBD and so we spend a lot of time talking about fertility, hormones, pregnancy, and sexuality. We also talk about her upcoming book for patients on living well with IBD, being one of few female GIs, the PIANO study on pregnant women on IBD biologics, and a brief foray into why cilantro and ginger taste weird to some people.
