Dr. Connie Guille, Professor and Director of Women’s Reproductive Behavioral Health Division at the Medical University of South Carolina, is supporting women with perinatal psychiatry.
From an upcoming program that will allow patients to call and speak with a provider within 30 minutes, to a text messaging system designed to detect women struggling with substance abuse and domestic violence, Dr. Guille has launched many innovative programs to help women through a very critical time - pregnancy and the post-natal period.
About 1 in 5 women experience a perinatal mood, anxiety, or substance abuse issue during pregnancy, and the cost of untreated postpartum depression alone is $32,000 per mom/baby.
Through the pandemic, the number of women struggling increased significantly.
Check out this interview with Dr Guille to learn more about how she’s helping women get the help they need in a fast and efficient way.
