This can lead to a discontinuity in care for post-partum patients. Recently, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists have reviewed the typical “one…[Read more]

I think this is a great new initiative. I applaud the comprehensive, yet individualized approach they recommend. I doubt that physicians alone will be able to supply this higher level of care for the “4th trimester”, but I envision many of these services would be suitable for the whole health care team to participate in. This would include nurses,…[Read more]

Thank you for sharing, Jan. I am definitely someone who gets “tech neck” frequently from screen time (9:49pm and I’m hunched over a computer…oops).
