🌈✨ Looking for an LGBTQ+ friendly mental health professional? Check out our guide below for more! #pridemonth 🧐 Think about what you look for in a doctor or therapist. Consider your needs and preferences such as gender, communication style, and approach. 🧑💻 Research and identify LGBTQ+ affirming therapists.

Make sure they're qualified and have experience in areas relevant to what you need such as trauma, gender identity, etc. 🏥 Look at their clinic as a whole. Assess the overall environment of their clinic. Is it inclusive and welcoming? 🫂 🙋 Ask questions! Don’t hesitate to ask about their experience with LGBTQ+ clients and their approach to therapy. 👀 Continue to evaluate your relationship with your clinician.

April 7 was World Health Day and here at PlushCare, we'd like to take a moment to reflect on our journey inspired by a simple question: Why should getting quality healthcare be any harder than ordering a takeout or getting a rideshare? 🌍💚 From humble beginnings of a small doctor’s office operated by our co-founders Ryan McQuaid and James Wantuck, MD, to serving countless members across the nation, our mission has remained the same: to help all people live longer, healthier, and happier lives. By bringing top-tier doctors from the nation's leading medical institutions, compassionate therapists, and an empathy-based care team, we're not just reimagining healthcare; we're delivering it with convenience and a human touch. As we reflect on yesterday's #WorldHealthDay, let’s remember that #healthcare is a right, not a privilege. It's about people, not just prescriptions. It’s about living your best life, with the support of a healthcare system that truly cares. Here's to a healthier, happier health journey for all. #HealthForAll #MyHealthMyRight 🔗🌎🩺 Learn more: https://lnkd.in/d-2weMW

Healthcare is complicated, and most people don’t think about it until they need it. In this episode, James Wantuck, MD, Associate Chief Medical Officer at Accolade, shares his motivation for entering the healthcare field—a desire to have a significant impact on people's lives and delves into the rising popularity of weight management medications, particularly GLP-1s, and the challenges employers face in providing coverage. James shares the results of an extensive survey conducted by Accolade, highlighting the demand for these medications and their potential as a recruitment and retention tool for employees. Finally, Dr. Wantuck emphasizes the importance of the doctor-patient relationship in designing individualized weight management programs and addresses the current medication shortage.
