In this episode, Dr. Piraye Beim sit down with Dr. Heidi Flagg, founder, partner, and menopause specialist at Spring Ob/Gyn in Manhattan. 

Dr. Flagg candidly shares the challenges of operating within an insurance-based model, highlighting everything from 15-minute visits that barely scratch the surface of menopause care to the lack of training many doctors receive in treating perimenopausal and menopausal women.

Tune in as we dive into the real day-to-day complexities of bringing cutting-edge clinical research into a busy practice, the misconceptions stemming from the early 2000s Women’s Health Initiative study, and why comprehensive menopause care is finally getting the spotlight it deserves. 

Whether you’re navigating your own perimenopause journey or simply want to understand how a frontline clinician is pushing boundaries in women’s health, this episode offers valuable insights, practical advice, and plenty of hope for the future.
