In this episode of WellBuilt, Jon spoke to Reza Amin, PhD, Founder and CEO of Bastion Health, and Dr. Justin Houman, Medical Director at Bastion Health.

Bastion is at the forefront of transforming men's health care, an area often stigmatized and not prioritized. As a comprehensive men's specialty virtual clinic, Bastion integrates prostate, reproductive, and sexual health services, making strides in how men access and manage their health.

Reza shares his motivation for founding Bastion, driven by his fertility journey and the loss of his grandfather to prostate cancer. Dr. Houman elaborates on Bastion's mission to break traditional healthcare models by offering comprehensive men's health services directly to patients' homes. This approach addresses common physical health issues and tackles psychological barriers to seeking treatment.

Reza and Dr. Houman explore the inherent challenges of delivering specialized men’s health care through telehealth, such as the limitations around physical examinations. They detail how Bastion overcomes these hurdles by leveraging advanced diagnostic tools and establishing a comprehensive network for patient referrals, ensuring that telehealth serves as a robust extension of traditional healthcare services.

They also elaborate on educating patients about the importance of regular screenings and proactive health management, aiming to empower men with the knowledge to take charge of their health effectively.

Bastion Health is revolutionizing the way companies offer health benefits by integrating their specialized men's health services into employer programs. This approach not only enhances accessibility and convenience for employees but also assists organizations in nurturing a healthier workforce, leading to increased productivity and reduced healthcare costs.
