Host: Charles Turck, PharmD, BCPS, BCCCP Guest: Ayman Al-Hendy, MD, PhD, FRCSC, FACOG, CCRP In addition to heavy menstrual bleeding, patients with uterine fibroids often deal with many other considerable effects on their physical and mental wellbeing. To provide optimal care, it’s important to recognize the full impact of fibroids, communicate carefully about treatment options, and promote equitable access to care. Dr. Charles Turck sits down with Dr. Ayman Al-Hendy to learn more about how we can address the multifaceted burden of uterine fibroids. Dr. Al-Hendy is a Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the Director of Translational Research at the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine.

Guest: Jessica Shull, PhD Guest: Joshua Solomon, MD Host: Ryan Quigley Patients with pulmonary fibrosis often face anxiety and emotional distress that go unadressed during their care. Given this unmet need, a digital cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) platform was designed to support emotional wellbeing alonside medical treatment. Mr. Ryan Quigley sits down with Drs. Jessica Shull and Joshua Solomon, who presented at the 2025 American Thoracic Society International Conference to explore how this platform may enhance quality of life, support therapy adherence, and integrate into routine care. Dr. Shull is the Director of Digital Health and a Clinical Science Liaison at Vicore Pharma, and Dr. Solomon is a Professor of Medicine in Pulmonary Care and the Director of the Interstitial Lung Disease Program at National Jewish Health.

Guest: Natalie Bareis, PhD, LMSW Despite the availability of effective treatments for schizophrenia spectrum disorders, many patients are not receiving minimally adequate care based on a recent study. Tune in to hear Dr. Natalie Bareis discuss barriers to care, including the impact of substance use disorders and the limited availability of specialized programs, as well as how we can improve access and outcomes for patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders. Dr. Bareis is an Assistant Professor of Clinical Behavioral Medicine in Psychiatry at Columbia University.

Guest: Natalie Bareis, PhD, LMSW A recent study on schizophrenia uncovered a significantly higher prevalence than previously estimated. The study also highlights ongoing struggles for patients, including low employment rates, poor general functioning, and limited access to adequate treatment. Join lead author Dr. Natalie Bareis as she discusses these findings and highlights the need for better policies and treatment accessibility. Dr. Bareis is an Assistant Professor of Clinical Behavioral Medicine in Psychiatry at Columbia University.

Guest: Clete A. Kushida, MD, PhD Guest: Sally Ibrahim, MD, FAAP Sodium content and the disruption associated with the twice-nightly dosing of sodium oxybate are common concerns when treating patients with narcolepsy. Is sodium content truly a risk factor for cardiovascular sequelae in patients with narcolepsy? Does twice-nightly dosing lead to medically unacceptable dosing errors? Join Drs. Sally Ibrahim and Clete Kushida as they dive into these questions and provide actionable answers for you to use in your clinical practice.

Host: Peter Buch, MD, FACG, AGAF, FACP Guest: Brian E. Lacy, MD, PhD About 50 percent of gastrointestinal providers are experiencing some degree of burnout, which can lead to a variety of personal and professional challenges.

Guest: Joseph F. Goldberg, MD Guest: Roger McIntyre, MD Patients with PTSD suffer from a range of psychiatric symptoms that severely reduce their quality of life. PTSD has proven to not only be a complicated diagnosis, but also one that has a low index of suspicion. Many patients are not screened for PTSD, and those who are diagnosed often gain little benefit from currently available treatments. Join us as these issues are dissected by Drs. Joseph Goldberg and Roger McIntyre, with the objective of providing clinicians with key action steps to take to improve outcomes for patients affected by PTSD.
