Maybe it’s all in your head.”

Far too many women have heard those words when seeking answers for their pain.

In this powerful clip from our latest podcast episode, Dr. Nicole Williams discusses how she approaches patients who have been labeled as having “psychosomatic pain” and why taking the time to truly listen matters.

She shares how women—especially Black women—are often dismissed, misdiagnosed, or told their symptoms aren’t real. Instead of making assumptions, she believes in listening first, validating concerns, and conducting a thorough medical evaluation to uncover the root cause.

Every patient deserves to be heard. Every symptom deserves to be investigated.

🎙️ Watch the full conversation and hear Dr. Williams’ perspective on patient advocacy, women’s health, and the importance of compassionate care.
