Dr. Winter is a urologist. She grew up in New Jersey and went to Rutgers for undergrad.

She did her urology residency at Cornell in NYC.

She did her fellowship with Dr. Irwin Goldstein in San Diego – the only fellowship for women’s sexual health that exists!

She currently works at Kaiser in Portland.

She is active on twitter at @AshleyGWinter

She is on FB at @ashleywintermd

Her podcast is called “the Full Release” which she co-hosts with her husband Mo Mandel.

https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-full-release-health-relationships-comedy/id1346835576

So excited to have you!

1) How did you find Urology

2) Why a fellowship?

3) We ponder the lack of education and acknowledgement of the clitoris in exams and education.

4) What is your favorite procedure in urology and why?

5) How do you take care of penis health?

6) Biggest misperception about the penis?

7) How penis bearing people have hurt themselves.

8) Any advice if a penis isn’t working as well as it should?

9) Do OCT penis supplements work?

10) What is Peyronies Disease?

11) Biggest misperception you see with people and sex?

12) How did you find a comedian as a fiancé?

13) How did your podcast come to life?

My favorite tweet of Dr. Winter’s:

The actual text of the review states: "The findings support the role of the clitoris in attaining sexual orgasm." NOTHING NEEDS TO SUPPORT THAT. That would be equal to saying, "This data supports the role of the eyeball in seeing." The clitoris DESERVES BETTER.
