  • Summary

  • Dr Ronx Ikharia has worked as a frontline A&E doctor for more than a decade. They believe medicine aims to help people - but they ask, does healthcare work equally well for everyone?

    Statistics show that women and people assigned female at birth spend more of their life in poor health, it takes longer for them to receive diagnoses for a variety of health conditions, they are less likely to be prescribed pain relief, and they are more likely to receive a mental health diagnosis for a physical problem.

    Why is this?

    Dr Ronx examines the origin of medicine and the current healthcare system in a search for answers.

    The series hears from patients, medical professionals, historians, and academics. This is a comprehensive and sensitive look at whether your gender affects your health.

    A Whistledown Production for Audible.
