Hi there! Welcome to www.KristiAngevineMD.com’s Ob-Gyn Blog.  This blog shares my take on topics in the field of women’s health, medicine and wellness in general.  I’m so happy to have such a great audience! In my practice in Chattanooga, TN, I have had the chance to hear from many patients.  The blog will address the questions that I commonly hear, day after day.  Hopefully, the answers will resonate with others who also have the same concerns.  I’ll also highlight current topics in the field of Ob/Gyn in a conversational, down to earth way. My paradigm for encouraging health is to base clinical decisions on current evidence and to make sure patients really understand what’s going on with their body (their pregnancy, their vagina, their pap smear, etc).  I strive to make sure people really get it. And in getting it, can move on from their health worries and enjoy living. A few things I believe in: Care must be individualized.  One size does NOT fit all and everyone deserves good care. Knowledge is power.  At my office and on this blog, I want people to leave understanding more than when they arrived. You deserve to understand your body and know how to feel your best.  What you read should give clarity to what can sometimes seem murky and confusing. Right now, Health Care really behaves more like Disease Care.  I want to add to the efforts to turn our medical system on its head.  Shifting the culture of medicine and the culture of what we expect from health care is long overdue.  To this end. these ideas will permeate all posts: Gone...
