Guest: Stacy Tessler Lindau, MD

Host: Lee Freedman, MD


Dr. Stacy Tessler Lindau, assistant professor in the departments of OB/GYN and geriatrics and the University of Chicago Cancer Research Center, discusses the findings of her landmark study on the sexual practices of older Americans. Older adults are indeed sexually active and healthcare providers need to discuss issues of sexuality with this group of patients. How may one approach this sometimes difficult to address topic and what should be discussed with our older adult patients? Hosted by Dr. Lee Freedman.
