Helpful for women too
Dr. Stephan Poulter put words to things I’ve been trying to understand for a lifetime. I’m a woman, but his lens helped me see my own wounds with surprising clarity. Looking forward to more episodes with him as a guest.

Reliable info, excellent host
OK, full disclosure, I’m biased, as I’ve known Jesse since he was a med student. Having said that, he is a leader in the field of Men’s Health and his information is reliable, objective, and trustworthy. He’s got a great bedside manner and explains this in a way that’s understandable to the average lay person. This is a must-listen for all men and their partners with questions about testosterone, fertility, vasectomy, and Men’s Health in general. Highly recommend.

Listened to 2nd episode. Basically no information. Mostly just banal filler between ads for other iHeartPodcasts shows

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Playlists with Purpose: How to Use Music to Hack Your Mood and Change Your Life

Q: So like Dr. Mills, there's 12 areas of life. What area feels most in need of attention right now?

We'd start by identifying a focus (e.g., time management or personal joy), then craft a playlist and a corresponding practice to address it, using a promise-and-consequence framework to enforce consistency.

Undoing the Snip: Inside Vasectomy Reversal Surgery

Q: What factors determine whether a vasectomy reversal will be successful?

Success depends on multiple variables including time since vasectomy, the presence of epididymal obstruction, the type of reversal performed (vasovasostomy vs vasoepididymostomy), sperm presence in fluid during surgery, and partner fertility; overall counseling emphasizes a personalized plan rather than a fixed statistic.

Bridging the Gap: Inside The Fight for Healthcare Equity

Q: What is the role of technology versus people in your approach?

Technology enables efficient navigation, telehealth, and asynchronous communication, but the real value comes from dedicated people—community health workers, concierge staff, and physicians—working together to design patient-centered pathways and sustain the model financially.

Bridging the Gap: Inside The Fight for Healthcare Equity

Q: What makes the hub-and-spoke model effective for both urban and rural settings?

The model works because the core barriers—availability of providers, transportation, and navigation—are similar across urban and rural areas. By connecting local resources with telemedicine and strong partnerships, HubMD can bridge gaps, route patients appropriately, and extend specialist access beyond geographic constraints.

Bridging the Gap: Inside The Fight for Healthcare Equity

Q: How did HubMD start and what was the early vision for improving access to specialty care?

HubMD began eight years ago bootstrapped with a single health plan to solve access to specialty care by building a proprietary communications and referral platform. The founders focused on serving prisons, Medi-Cal plans, and marginalized communities, and they grew by partnering with many organizations to create a navigable continuum of care.
