In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Somi Javaid, a board-certified OB/GYN, surgeon, and founder of HerMD, a groundbreaking healthcare platform redefining how women receive care. Dedicated to closing the gender gap in medicine, HerMD specializes in menopause, sexual health, and gynecology, offering a patient-first approach that is long overdue. Dr. Javaid is not only a medical leader but also a trailblazer in FemTech. She is among the fewer than 0.4% of women of color in the U.S. to secure venture capital funding. Her bold vision and relentless advocacy have earned her recognition on Inc.'s Female Founders 250 list as she continues to transform women’s healthcare nationwide. In our conversation, Dr. Javaid shares her powerful journey, from her early days as a pre-med student to becoming a national voice for change in women's health. She opens up about the personal experiences that inspired HerMD, the systemic barriers she’s fought to overcome, and the innovations reshaping care as we know it. From the concept of “medical magic” to her mission of expanding access through digital platforms, Dr. Javaid offers a candid and inspiring look at what it truly means to reimagine healthcare for women, by women.
