⭐️Best of the Coast 2025 Winner: Best General Care Physician ⭐️

Still can’t believe it.

A big THANK YOU to .weekly for an amazing Best of the Coast party. And for always providing a way for us Pensacola small businesses to be recognized in a way that’s by Pensacola and for Pensacola 💙

Good people attract good people.
We saw so many friends from the community last night and it feels amazing to celebrate our victories together. 💙

What was even cooler to me was seeing the spouses, the kids, the families. Because you are all a part of it and deserve recognition too (I’m looking at you, Nate) 💙

Thank you for helping this burnt out corporate doc be able to recognize my dream of PEOPLE OVER PRODUCTIVITY.💙

16 months down, like 40 years to go 😆

Congrats to all 🍾🍾🍾

If I had to pick a favorite ❤️ of the articles I’ve written, it would be this one.
Most because my husband wrote it with me 😃

It's hard when you're not the person doing the actual breastfeeding. How can you help and not hinder? What should you say and not say?

Say it again for the people in the back.

🙌🏻

Today’s FDA panel on SSRIs in pregnancy lacked balance and failed to reflect the evidence. Untreated depression and anxiety can lead to serious health risks for pregnant patients. SSRIs can be lifesaving and life-changing. Patients deserve access to evidence-based, compassionate care. ACOG will continue to advocate for research and safe mental health treatment in pregnancy.
