Empathy as a patient and a provider: “I have been working in women's health for over 8 years and I am also going through perimenopause. As a patient and a provider, I have witnessed firsthand the hurdles that patients have to feel heard regarding menopause transition. It is extremely important to feel heard when you are explaining such a vulnerable part of your life. I think the culture is slowly shifting to listening to women in this menopause transition, but we still have a lot of work to do.”

Revolutionizing menopause care with Midi: “I want to be a part of a company where menopause care is holistically addressed and easily accessible to all patients going through menopause. I think Midi's presence in the medical community will open up other health care providers to the needs of women transitioning through menopause.”

To women approaching menopause: “You don't have to live in silence with the symptoms of menopause transition. There are options to make you feel more like yourself. I find it truly satisfying when you can change this dialogue and assist in the process of them feeling better or having a higher quality of life.”
