If you need to see a urologist, the odds are good that your doctor will be male. Of all the medical specialties, urology is one of the lowest as far as female representation.
In this episode, you’ll meet one of the few female urologists making a positive difference in how women are perceived in the field of urology.
We are joined by Urologist and Sexual Medicine specialist, Dr. Ashley Winter. We talk about topics that many shy away from especially in her field. She is the co-host of the informational comedy podcast The Full release together with her fiance.
Dr. Winter shares her experiences as a female urologist and why she decided to become one. We also had a discussion on some of the common questions and misconceptions people have when it comes to female urologists.
