***Warning that this episode discusses eating disorders, disordered eating, and medical trauma.*** This week we spoke with Dr. Jordan Shapiro! Dr. Shapiro is a GI Hospitalist at Peak Gastroenterology Associates in Colorado as well as a private practice GI at Gentle GI in Houston, TX (starting April 1, 2024). Dr. Shapiro also is a yoga instructor and enthusiastic practitioner and so we spend quite a bit of time learning about the practice of yoga that goes beyond the body movements we're probably all familiar with and how adding yoga to your care may be beneficial. He also has expertise in working with patients with eating disorders or disordered eating as well as in trauma-informed care. We talk to him about how he approaches patient care in a empathetic way and how he works with patients who have identified trauma experiences that may impact their care. We also talk to him about how he uses this knowledge and experience to help other providers learn how to create a safe environment for people who may be struggling with trauma responses. We really enjoyed this conversation with Dr. Shapiro and think you'll learn a lot from him as well.
