How do we effectively start the conversation about menopause? How do we take a holistic approach to menopause and healthcare in general? What impact has the pandemic had on preventative care? Is telemedicine the answer?
Jill Angelo joins us on the SuperAge podcast to discuss these questions and share how her company, Gennev, is offering a more rounded approach to healthcare for women.
Gennev is a virtual clinic for women 40+. Their doctors, health coaches, wellness products and community specialize in supporting women through their perimenopause and post menopause years. Gennev’s approach is a holistic one — they take into account the physical as well as the emotional to provide the best treatment strategy.
“You don’t need to suffer. And most women kind of suffer in silence.”
“Your general healthcare needs to consider body and mind. And I think you’re going to start to see a melding of the two coming together versus “I go to my therapist for my emotional wellbeing, or my counselor, or whomever. And I go to my primary care physician for everything physical.”
“In our care model, we give you access to a doctor and to a health coach and also to a therapist if you need that as well. They’re your care team.”
“Any group of people that’s going through transition needs community.”
“‘Gen’ is ‘generation’ and ‘nev’ in old Irish means “radiant”. So we really see ourselves as supporting this next generation of women through the most radiant years of their lives.”
