About this episode
This episode explores the challenges and realities of urinary tract infections, featuring insights from healthcare leaders.
Urinary tract infections are common, but so are misdiagnoses, poor treatment protocols, and dismissed symptoms. In Episode 3 of Scoot Closer , we dive into the burning realities of UTIs: why they're often mistreated, how the healthcare system lets patients down, and what science is doing to help. We’re joined by two incredible guests - Phiogen’s CEO Amanda Burkardt and Live UTI Free's founder, Melissa Kramer - who bring insight, empathy, and action to the field. Whether you've had one UTI or dozens, this episode might change the way you see your care.
