This month, Dr Thomas White chats with Dr Shannon Dowler, former president of the NCAFP and currently the Chief Medical Officer for North Carolina Medicaid in the Dept. of Health and Human Services. 

In this podcast, Dr Dowler shares how her parents’ example instilled in her an intellectual curiosity, a love for reading,  and a desire to provide assistance and support for those in need. You will find her refreshingly candid and entertaining, as well as insightful and passionate. 
Recognized as an educator and advocate for sexual health, Dr. Dowler has just published a book on the subject which will be of interest to all Family Physicians and their “older” sexually active patients! 

Known as “Rap Dkta D”, Dr Dowler explains how she came to love rhymes and rhythms; and if you listen to the end, you will get to hear her recite one of her clever limericks about a sexually transmitted infection! Listen and enjoy!
