Hey doc! In today's episode of ✨Stethoscopes and Strollers✨, I sit down with Dr. Phindile Chowa, who shares her journey through pregnancy loss, cultural adaptation, and creating the medical practice she wished existed during her own struggles.

We explore:

  • Breaking cultural norms as an African Physician in America
  • The reality of pregnancy loss and anxiety in subsequent pregnancies
  • How lacking support during crisis shaped her mission
  • Transforming personal experience into patient care

Key Takeaways:

  • Advocating for yourself as a patient
  • Processing grief while maintaining a medical career
  • Making decisions that honor your vision
  • Creating the support you needed but didn't have

Doc, this conversation proves how our deepest struggles often lead us to our truest purpose. Sometimes the hardest paths create the most meaningful destinations.
Dr. Phindile Erika Chowa is a Board Certified Emergency Medicine Physician based in Atlanta, Georgia. She pursued her undergraduate studies and medical education at the University of Pittsburgh before completing her Emergency Medicine Residency at Harvard University.
With a passion for enhancing patient experiences, Dr. Chowa dedicated several years to a prominent academic hospital, where she ascended to an administrative role within the emergency department. Witnessing the transformative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on healthcare delivery, she resolved to redefine her medical practice to prioritize patient dignity and accessibility.

Driven by her vision, Dr. Chowa founded EMCare2U, a concierge Medical Practice aimed at delivering healthcare directly to patients' homes. Her practice has a particular focus on postpartum wellness.

Author of the acclaimed book "What to Expect Next!," Dr. Chowa empowers mothers with invaluable insights and guidance for a healthy postpartum journey. Additionally, she co-hosts the podcast "Hey Doc Let’s Chat," where she discusses healthcare issues pertinent to women of color, contributing to a vital dialogue on inclusive healthcare.

Her patients consistently praise her for her intelligence, kindness, and compassionate approach to medicine, reflecting her unwaverin

Join me for “Redefining Your Black Job: Physician Mom Edition” - an interactive workshop where we’ll examine which of these roles truly serve us and which ones we need to redefine - or release entirely.
I am hosting it twice and these are the two dates available:
📍Tuesday, February 18th @ 8 PM ET / 5 PM PT
📍Thursday, February 20th @ 8 PM ET / 5 PM PT
