Show Notes

On this week’s 51%, we speak with Dr. Elizabeth Lucal about how women can reduce their risk of cervical cancer, and why we still know so little about ovarian cancer. Dr. Lucal is an OB-GYN and the vice chair of women’s health services at Nuvance Health in the Hudson Valley and western Connecticut. Our associate producer, Jody Cowan, also speaks with the founders of JBA Concierge Medicine, about how patients can get the most out of their doctor’s appointments. 

Guests: Dr. Elizabeth Lucal, OB-GYN with Nuvance Health; Alison Joseph and John Brown, founders of JBA Concerige Medicine

51% is a national production of WAMC Northeast Public Radio in Albany, New York. Jesse King is our producer and host. Our associate producer is Jody Cowan, and our theme is "Lolita" by the Albany-based artist Girl Blue.
