Welcome, welcome!

I’m a mom and a public health physician. I frequently find that in both of my roles, people have a lot of health questions for themselves, their kids, their parents and other loved ones. I have a lot of health questions for myself, my kids, my parents and other loved ones too!

I love to read, research and stay on top of the latest public health and medical information. Things change so quickly nowadays that it’s hard to stay on top of things – and a lot of what I find is either jargony, inaccurate, or both.

I hope to be a trustworthy and accurate resource for moms and other people with health questions. I believe in science and logic. But as a scientist, I also know that we don’t have all of the answers to everything – anyone who tells you that they do is probably lying or trying to sell you something (or both!).

I will share plain language, simple explanations of facts and science, counter myths, and explain when we quite frankly don’t have an answer!

This is not a “mommy blog”, with all due respect to mommy bloggers. While I am a mom and may occasionally make reference to my kids, please respect their privacy and don’t ask personal questions about them or me.

I look forward to talking with you more! After these set-up posts, I’m planning on initial Monday updates – or more frequently in the future if I can handle the volume in my busy work and family life! If you have any health-related questions or topics you’d like me to cover, leave a comment here!

🙂 Dr. B
