- Dr. Maria Uloko, urologist and sexual health specialist: 'Most medical schools and residency programs do not require menopause education... We have an entire physician workforce that does not know how to diagnose, treat or even look for these symptoms.'
- Dr. Heather Bartos, OB/GYN and menopause specialist: the number one complaint is not hot flashes but 'I don't feel like myself anymore.'
- Uloko on why retreats exist: 'There is a permissive culture in medicine around women suffering. Quality of life has not historically been treated as a clinical priority for women. Even when a physician wants to do this work well, insurance reimbursement is so poor that it is nearly impossible to deliver this care within a standard model.'
- Carillon VP Tammy Pahel: 'Luxury used to just be luxury. Today, luxury is wellness and longevity.'
