A Candid Conversation with Holistic OBGYN Nathan Riley

The episode you’ve all been waiting for is here!! I got to interview board certified OBGYN Nathan Riley and this conversation was beyond eye opening. Most people would agree that modern Obstetrics could use a LOT of improvement and yet not many changes have happened to improve maternal care. It was incredible to get to have such a candid conversation with Nathan and essentially ask him ALL the questions many of us have wished we could ask an OBGYN.
