episode 97: Standing up for yourself. The importance of self advocacy in your fertility journey.
When did today’s guest Dr. Moira Kwok ND realize she needed to speak up for herself? Was it when she was 12 and was told debilitating cramps were normal? Was it when she suffered a rare complication from her IUI procedure and was sent home from the hospital? Or was it when she dedicated her life’s work to helping women and couples navigate the world of fertility medicine?
You’ll have to listen to find out.
The theme of today’s episode is self-advocacy in your care. Whether you are pursuing fertility care or not, Moira’s story is really about listening to your body, listening to your gut, and asking the right questions in your medical care.
Dr. Moira Kwok ND is my colleague and team mate who helps me support our fertility patients at Clarity Health in Burlington. She works with women and couples all over Ontario to reach their fertility and family goals and has been a wonderful support on our team to reach all of the men and women looking to add a Naturopathic Doctor to their fertility team.
