Program Description

Event Details

Amy Sass, MD, knows secrets. In her practice as an adolescent medicine physician at Children's Hospital Colorado, she sees patients who, in many cases, have never seen a doctor without their parents present. She's had conversations with teens they might not have with anyone else — not their parents, not even their peers.

 

"Most teens don't tell their parents everything, and that's normal," she says. "If there's anything in our secret sauce in Adolescent Medicine, it's that we listen and don't judge."

 

Amy will talk about the top questions she gets from teens — plus the answers that motivate them, and how parents can get through to them when it counts.

 

This event will be held on Zoom. The link will be sent to registrants shortly before the event.
