Dr. Fareed sheds light on the growing physician shortage and how workforce challenges demand systemic reforms, such as integrating telemedicine and multidisciplinary care teams. They also explore changing trends in maternity, including increasing maternal age and rising health risks like obesity and hypertension, emphasizing the need for preventative care and health optimization before pregnancy.
The conversation extends to empowering women through better access to healthcare, combatting misinformation online, and embracing innovative solutions like AI in medicine. Dr. Fareed’s insights inspire hope for a future where every woman can access compassionate, high-quality care.
