  • Heart Disease Kills Women - Here's What a Cardiologist Wants You to Know

    Heart Disease Kills Women - Here's What a Cardiologist Wants You to Know
    2026/06/15
    Heart disease is the number one killer of women in the United States. Not breast cancer. Heart disease. And most women still don't know their symptoms, their risk factors, or the three numbers that could change the outcome. In this episode, Dr. Bayo sits down with Dr. Njeri Kuria, a cardiology fellow at Loma Linda University Medical Center, to give women the information they should have been getting at every appointment. This episode covers women's heart attack symptoms, cardiovascular disease prevention, heart health across every decade of life, and what women with autoimmune diseases, a history of pregnancy complications, or perimenopausal symptoms need to know about their cardiac risk right now. Dr. Kuria breaks down why women's symptoms are so often missed or dismissed, what pregnancy reveals about long-term heart health, and what to ask your doctor when every test comes back normal but something still doesn't feel right. In this episode you'll learn why heart attack symptoms in women rarely match the textbook and how to describe what you're actually feeling, why pregnancy is considered your first cardiac stress test and what preeclampsia, gestational hypertension, and gestational diabetes predict about your future cardiovascular risk, what peripartum cardiomyopathy is and why it is frequently mistaken for postpartum exhaustion, how chronic inflammation from autoimmune diseases like lupus and rheumatoid arthritis raises your risk for ischemic heart disease, the three numbers that drive cardiovascular disease, blood pressure, LDL cholesterol, and A1C, and what they should look like in your 30s, 40s, and 50s, what lipoprotein A is, why it can change after menopause, and when to ask about a coronary calcium score, what microvascular disease and endothelial dysfunction are and what testing exists when a stress test, echo, and angiogram all come back normal, and why women wait longer than men to call 911 and longer in the ER once they arrive and what to do about both.

  • What to Do When Your Doctor Doesn't Believe You

    What to Do When Your Doctor Doesn't Believe You
    2026/06/01
    Most patients who have been dismissed by a doctor leave the appointment wondering if they imagined it. They didn't. Medical gaslighting is real, it is one of the most underacknowledged problems in healthcare today, and it does not end when you walk out of that office. It lives in your chart and shapes how every future doctor sees you before you even open your mouth. In this episode, Dr. Bayo sits down with patient advocate and author Ilana Jacqueline to break down what medical gaslighting actually looks like, why your medical records may already be working against you, and exactly what you can do to get the care you deserve. Ilana Jacqueline is a patient advocate and the author of two books: Surviving and Thriving with an Invisible Chronic Illness and Medical Gaslighting: How to Get the Care You Deserve in a System That Makes You Fight for Your Life. Diagnosed at nineteen with hypogammaglobulinemia, a condition where the immune system fails to produce enough antibodies to fight infection, leaving you looking completely healthy on the outside while your body is fighting constantly on the inside, she has spent years turning her own patient experience into practical tools that any patient or caregiver can use in that exam room. In this episode you'll learn the four categories of excuses physicians use to avoid treating patients and the specific phrases that signal each one so you can recognize them in real time, why what you wear to a new doctor's appointment can affect the care you receive and what Ilana recommends instead, how to use your MyChart clinical notes to find errors and gaslighting language that may already be shaping how every future doctor sees you before you say a word, how to request your full hospital records including the nursing notes most patients never know exist and what to do when what is written does not match what actually happened in that room, and how to hold your ground in a disagreement with your doctor while knowing the difference between gaslighting and a genuine difference of medical opinion. Find Ilana's books at Surviving and Thriving with an Invisible Chronic Illness and Medical Gaslighting, wherever books are sold and free at libraries across the United States.

    What Every Woman Should Know Before an OB/GYN Appointment
    2026/05/15
    Most women have left an OB/GYN appointment feeling rushed, unheard, or with fewer answers than they walked in with. Women's health is one of the most misrepresented areas of medicine online and one of the areas where patient concerns are most often minimized. In this episode, Dr. Bayo sits down with board-certified OB/GYN Dr. Fran Haydanek (@pagingdrfran) to break down what a thorough gynecology visit should actually look like, why so many women are scheduling the wrong type of appointment without knowing it, and what you can say in that exam room to get the care you deserve. Dr. Fran is a board-certified OB/GYN practicing in Rochester, New York, a mother of three, and host of the podcast I Did My Own Research. She built a publicly accessible directory of more than 3,000 physicians across the United States who will perform sterilization for young, childfree patients. In this episode you'll learn why the difference between a well-woman visit and a problem visit changes everything and how to use that knowledge before you even call to schedule, what pain management options exist for IUD insertions, endometrial biopsies, and colposcopies and exactly how to ask for them, what to say when you feel dismissed and the specific questions that get your physician to verbalize their thinking, how Dr. Fran built her directory of 3,000+ doctors who will sterilize young childfree patients and how to find one near you, and three red flags that a health creator online is not a trustworthy source.
