• Ep. 38: What Doctors Miss About Mammograms + Women’s Health with Dr. Jenn Simmons

  For decades, women have been told the same story: mammograms save lives. They’re painted as the gold standard for breast cancer prevention — a rite of passage once you hit your forties. But what if that story isn’t the full picture? What if the very test meant to protect us is also leading to unnecessary fear, invasive treatments, and even harm?In this powerful episode of Grounded Wellness, host Bethany McDaniel sits down with Dr. Jenn Simmons, a former top breast cancer surgeon turned functional medicine practitioner, who is leading a revolution in women’s health. Dr. Simmons knows the system from the inside. After years in the operating room, she saw firsthand the toll of over-diagnosis and over-treatment. Women were enduring surgeries, chemotherapy, and lifelong medication regimens for cancers that never would have impacted their lives. The stakes are enormous: more than 20–30% of breast cancer diagnoses each year fall into this category of unnecessary treatment.Bethany and Dr. Simmons pull back the curtain on the mammogram myth vs reality, unpacking the real truth about mammograms — and pointing to safer, smarter alternatives. This episode doesn’t shy away from the hard truths, but it also delivers hope, clarity, and a path forward for women who want to take ownership of their health.Episode Resources:Dr. Jenn Simmons:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drjennsimmons/Website: https://www.realhealthmd.com/Book: https://www.realhealthmd.com/the-smart-womans-guide-to-breast-cancer-2/Podcast: https://keepingabreastwithdrjennMentioned in the episode: PerfeQTion Imaging Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/perfeqtionimaging/PerfeQTion Imaging Website: www.perfeqtionimaging.comAuria Test (Code drjenn20): https://auria.care/20-30% of people that get mammogram would have never developed clinical disease Explore more from Primally Pure:Shop: https://bit.ly/4e1HzVvBlog: https://bit.ly/4gAeIsYInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/primallypureTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@primallypure?lang=en
