Women of all ages rarely have the opportunity to discuss intimate health issues supported by a panel of doctors and specialists. Now women will have a unique opportunity to share and discuss the concerns and issues they may have regarding sexual and intimate health. The circle takes place Wednesday evening September 28, 2022 at the Open Space Event Studio, 220 NE Lafayette Ave, Bend from 5:30-8pm.
The panel will be led by Dr. Carol Petherbridge N.D., Bend’s leading women’s urinary incontinence and sexual health specialist at Freedom Regenerative Medicine. Her practice and outreach to other women’s health specialists in Bend led to the idea of creating a quarterly women’s health support circle for the community. “As a practicing Naturopathic physician for more than 36 years in Oregon, I’m committed to leading the conversation around sensitive issues in women’s intimate health such as breakthrough treatments, innovative products and candid conversations that can lead to a women’s sexual health and well-being,” said Dr. Carol Petherbridge.
