Dr. Barbara Levy, our Chief Medical Officer, addresses the critical gaps in women's healthcare in her latest MedCity News article, highlighting how fragmentation continues to impact diagnosis and treatment."Endometriosis takes between 4-11 years to accurately diagnose and treat," Dr. Levy notes, pointing to a healthcare system that still treats symptoms in isolation rather than taking a whole-person approach. She emphasizes the need for comprehensive solutions that address both immediate concerns and long-term wellbeing.

At Visana, we're committed to the patient-centered model Dr. Levy advocates for – one where women are partners in their care decisions and receive coordinated treatment across all their health needs.The article reinforces our mission to transform women's healthcare delivery through comprehensive virtual care that treats the whole person, not just individual symptoms.
