  • Diabetes Care

    It is so empowering to hear the experiences of others advocating for their health care. It is so obvious that the physicians are just as motivated to find a way to provide collaborative care, as patients are who need it. Dr T is a visionary. Thank You and I can’t wait for more.

  • Amazing resource

    I have been a huge fan of Dr Thangudu’s work for years. Assembled upon her page a few years ago when I was looking for answers myself regarding my diabetes. I was diagnosed in 2013 with diabetes after no family history and struggling to understand where it came from. After having an endocrinologist, call me fat and basically tell me to go on insulin and eat less than 1000 cal a day I was frustrated and exhausted. When I found Dr. T (as I call her) page I was able to gain knowledge of exactly how... more

  • Doc Arti ➡️ BEST!

    Dr. Thangudu aka Arti is absolutely amazing! If you have had a chance to meet her & understand her approach to wholistic medical care, attention to patient care, & individual attention to truly solving medical conditions versus a “prescribe the number” you’ll quickly understand why’s she’s the best. She cares. She studies. & most importantly she solves problems! Beyond that - she’s leading the charge in a profession dominated by men and reshaping the profession from the inside out!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Pelvic Floor, Strength, and Midlife Pain: What Women Aren't Told
Q: What diagnoses do you often see in pelvic floor therapy, and how does your approach differ from orthopedic PT when addressing these issues?
Common issues include stress, urge, and mixed urinary incontinence, constipation, dyspareunia, and prolapse symptoms. Unlike orthopedics, which focuses on locating a pain generator, pelvic floor PT often starts with a diagnosis and then delves into why it is happening, considering factors like pelvic floor tightness, breathing patterns, and coordination, as well as how these interact with overall movement and stress.
Pelvic Floor, Strength, and Midlife Pain: What Women Aren't Told
Q: What are the gaps in traditional delivery of health care and physical therapy for women, and how have you seen them affect patient care?
There has been a persistent lack of emphasis on women's health within PT education, insufficient training in pelvic floor issues, and systemic insurance-driven constraints that limit comprehensive, multi-region treatment and timely access. This leads to patients being referred to the wrong specialists or having to settle for limited care, instead of receiving a holistic approach that considers the pelvic floor in conjunction with back, hip, and overall function.
Exposing the Realities of U.S. Healthcare: A Conversation with Chris Deacon, Author of The Great American Healthcare Heist
Q: How does direct contracting differ from traditional insurance models, and why is it important for patients?
Direct contracting bypasses some middlemen by having employers pay providers directly, which can reduce costs and reconnect patients with their clinicians, preserving the physician-patient relationship and enabling clearer pricing.
Exposing the Realities of U.S. Healthcare: A Conversation with Chris Deacon, Author of The Great American Healthcare Heist
Q: What is a PBM and why do rebates matter in the cost of drugs?
A PBM negotiates drug prices and rebates with manufacturers to place drugs on formulary lists; however, rebates are often not fully passed through to employers or patients, creating profits for middlemen rather than true savings.
Protecting Your Future Brain: Alzheimer’s Prevention for Women in Midlife
Q: Is there anything that I haven't asked you about that you would like to share with our listeners?
I think one key takeaway is to start slow and implement one new healthy habit at a time. If listeners try one new thing per month for a year, they will have built a solid foundation that supports brain health and reduces dementia risk.
