HCA Healthcare Helps You be Your Best Self on Sharecare Radio

Sharecare Radio. Live your healthiest life. In partnership with sharecare.

By Dr. Darria Long Gillespie, senior vice president of clinical strategy at Sharecare 

At Sharecare, we’re committed to getting the most up-to-date and accurate health information to the public in accessible, easy-to-understand ways. That’s why we’ve partnered with HCA Healthcare, to gain access to their providers’ breadth of expertise across all health fields. And now, along with the thousands of articles, Q&A’s, and videos on our personalized platform that feature HCA Healthcare physicians, we will also benefit from their knowledge on our Sharecare Radio show and podcast.

Sharecare Radio, hosted on RadioMD and also appearing on iHeartRadio and iTunes, is live every Tuesday from 1 to 2 p.m. ET. As the host, my main focus is to provide health advice that is critical for you to know, but also attainable and realistic. I’ll demystify the food ingredients you really need to avoid – but as the mom of a toddler I also know that life sometimes gets in the way and that you can’t follow every rule to the “T”– so I’ll let you know when that’s okay too.

As an ER doctor, I’ve seen and treated everything from infectious diseases to broken bones to a very unplanned birth, and I bring all of these [sometimes crazy!] experiences to the show. But I also want to make sure we bring in the very best minds in their respective fields who have specific expertise in the health topics we cover. I’m thrilled to announce that from now on, Sharecare Radio will regularly feature HCA Healthcare physicians.

From pediatrics to orthopedics to gynecology, the HCA Healthcare providers we will have as guests are the best in their fields. This past show, obstetrician-gynecologist Dr. Monica Diaz from HCA Healthcare’s Medical City Dallas Hospital joined me in a segment on “Opening the Curtain on Fertility (and Infertility”). Dr. Diaz gave incredibly valuable information on why some fertility myths have stuck around, what “advice” is actually science-based and medically-proven, and how to address fertility issues in both women and men. Listen to our conversation here.

As we look forward to the many Sharecare Radio shows ahead, I can’t wait to see what the knowledgeable and experienced experts from HCA Healthcare will teach us. Join us on Sharecare Radio every Tuesday to get the latest on how to feel your best—so you can be your best!
