Dr. Melissa Drake, MD pulls the curtain back on obstetric care and take us behind the scenes, discussing commonalities about the typical patient experience. Why do appointments feel rushed? Why do doctors seem burnt out? She discusses how she found herself drained by the demands of the modern medical system and decided to transform her practice model. She stepped away from the larger insurance driven system, seeking a new offering of personalized, patient focused care.
