Southern Remedy Relatively Speaking | Maternal Mental Health

Host: Dr. Susan Buttross, Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, and Abram Nanney


Guest(s): Dr. Courtney Walker, Dr. Theo Browne, and Adri McHann


Topic: May is Mental Health Awareness Month and today we’re opening the door to a conversation that is too often kept behind closed ones: maternal mental health. Becoming a parent is often described as the happiest time in a person’s life. But for many, it’s also one of the most vulnerable. Behind the baby showers and birth announcements, there can be deep waves of anxiety, depression, isolation, and fear—feelings that deserve attention, compassion, and care. On today’s show, we’re shining a light on the mental and emotional well-being of mothers—before, during, and after pregnancy

  • Southern Remedy Relatively Speaking | Mistrust of Physicians

    48:35|
    Host: Dr. Susan Buttross, Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, and Abram NanneyTopic: A grateful public regarded doctors as health care heroes during the COVID 19 pandemic, and many were literally heroes, some of whom died caring for sick and dying patients. Yet here we are 5 years later finding that public trust in physicians is at an all time low. Why the decline? Why are people increasingly disregarding physician’s advice and going to social media for, at best, anecdotal medical information? Today on Relatively Speaking we will tackle this to try to understand how to be an active and educated participant in your health care.You can join the conversation by sending an email to: family@mpbonline.org.
