Testimonials

Dr. Karen Tang is a literal godsend to women in a time still filled with great ignorance in medical research and financing of women's health initiatives. Please read her book, follow her on Instagram as I have, and feel blessed as I do to have an advocate for our body, our health, and our human rights.

―Sharon Stone, Academy Award nominated actress, and New York Times bestselling author of The Beauty of Living Twice

"As evidenced by her firecracker Tik tok videos packed full of sound science, good humor, quick one-liners and obvious passion for public education, Dr. Tang is both an engaging presenter and one of the most important voices for women's health on the internet right now. The importance of her voice for both patients and providers alike cannot be overstated. Her soundbites are high-yield and also digestible, and her videos are always worth pausing your scroll for. I cannot recommend her highly enough!"

- Dr. Jocelyn Fitzgerald, Society of Gynecologic Surgeons
