Summary

Why isn't healthcare more personalized? This is the question our guest today aims to address. Alexandra is the founder of Just the Inserts, a platform dedicated to empowering individuals with accessible and transparent information about medical choices. In today's conversation, you'll learn about the reasons behind this lack of personalization, the role pharmaceutical companies play in it, and how individuals can make confident medical decisions—such as those regarding childbirth—based on reliable and transparent information.

Much of the healthcare information provided to the public by official organizations is often influenced by marketing and publicity motives. Alexandra's mission, both personally and professionally, is to demystify this information and clearly present the pros and cons of various medical decisions.
