“As a society, we can no longer afford the human and economic cost of not putting more emphasis on the health of women.” -- Stephanie Sassman

On this episode of The Medical Alley Podcast, Melinda Morimoto (Sr. Benefits Director) and Stephanie Sassman (Portfolio Leader, Women’s Health) of Genentech explain why that mentality impacts the personal and professional wellbeing of women and how companies like Genetech are combating it with an array of workplace benefits both large and small.
