Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Scrubbing Out: Kevin McKidd on His Epic Grey’s Anatomy Exit
Q: What was the experience of directing your own finale like?
It was empowering to craft and tell the story of his own character's exit, leveraging his background in film to create a memorable send-off.
Scrubbing Out: Kevin McKidd on His Epic Grey’s Anatomy Exit
Q: What made you say yes to joining Grey's Anatomy initially?
He was drawn by the material, the chance to work with Shonda Rhimes and Sandra Oh, and the opportunity to be part of a beloved, evolving ensemble.
The Fibroid Slayer: Winning the Battle for Womb Wellness
Q: What is the role of genetics in fibroid growth, and why is there no one-size-fits-all explanation?
Fibroids are coded by genes and influenced by hormones; while estrogen drives growth, the same hormonal environment affects different women differently, making it difficult to predict progression and underscoring the need for individualized care.
The Fibroid Slayer: Winning the Battle for Womb Wellness
Q: Can you walk us through a typical fibroid surgery and how you balance effectiveness with minimally invasive techniques?
I perform robotic or laparoscopic procedures to remove fibroids, using small incisions and a strategic approach to ensure complete fibroid removal, meticulous uterine repair, and consideration of future cesarean sections, with the goal of minimizing recovery time and preserving fertility when possible.
The Fibroid Slayer: Winning the Battle for Womb Wellness
Q: What makes fibroids more prevalent or more severe in Black women, and how does that shape your approach to treatment?
Black women often experience more advanced disease due to a combination of biological factors and social determinants of health; treatment approaches focus on removing all fibroids with meticulous repair to preserve fertility and minimize future surgeries, while acknowledging that lifestyle or diet are not simple guarantees of prevention.
