Sonographers have feelings too! Beyond the Screen & Compassionate Conversations with Expert Ultrasound Jessi Dressler

What happens when high-stakes clinical expertise meets a heart for patient advocacy? Join us as we sit down with Jessie Dressler, a veteran registered OB-GYN sonographer and the founder of New Life Imaging Ultrasound.

After years of navigating the high-pressure environment of emergency rooms and hospitals, Jessie recognized a glaring gap in the healthcare system: the need for emotional support and personalized care during the most vulnerable moments of pregnancy. Today, she’s bridging that gap by bringing high-quality 3D and 4D mobile ultrasound technology directly to expectant mothers across Middle Tennessee and Kentucky.

In this episode, we discuss:

• The Shift from ER to Entrepreneurship: Why Jessie left the clinical grind to focus on the patient experience.

• Advocacy in Loss: Jessie’s mission to provide free scans for women experiencing confirmed pregnancy loss, offering comfort and acknowledgment when it’s needed most.

• The Power of Connection: How in-home ultrasounds create a space for families to bond with their babies without the rush of a traditional doctor's office.

• Closing the Care Gap: Addressing the emotional needs of expectant parents that the modern healthcare system often overlooks.

Whether you are an expectant parent, a healthcare professional, or someone passionate about patient advocacy, Jessie’s journey is a powerful reminder of how one person can humanize healthcare.
