INSPIRATION: As a female practitioner, Dr. Dean realized that women were underserved. “A paternalistic medical model has no idea how to treat the aging female. My patient population (largely female) pushed me to challenge myself and the traditional medical model to adequately treat them.”
PATIENT EXPERIENCE: “Patients that have been prescribed antidepressants often come to me thinking they have a mental health issue. It is a great feeling to see the relief in a patient’s eyes when I explain that their issue is actually hormonal, common, and fixable.”
