This week we chat with Dr Preeya Alexander, a GP based in Melbourne with a passion for preventative medicine. One of Preeya’s passions is health literacy – on her website and Instagram account (@thewholesomedoctor) she shares evidence-based health information in a fun, engaging manner. She’s also a regular commentator on Mamamia, and she’s about to release her first children’s book, , which is all about encouraging little kids to eat well.Rainbow Plate
We discuss the importance of vaccines and health literacy; how your GP can help you prepare for pregnancy so you have the best possible outcome; managing anxiety about getting pregnant; and the option of shared maternity care with your GP once you’re pregnant.
