Listener Reviews

Listening to Dr. Wendy Schofer is sitting with a trusted physician and friend who deeply understands how much parents want to do right by their children. Her conversations on Family in Focus offer a compassionate reminder that supporting a child’s health is not about pressure, shame, or perfect decisions. One episode might help a parent rethink a tense conversation at the dinner table, pause before commenting on a child’s body, or choose connection before correction. Dr. Schofer brings warmth, wisdom, and practical guidance to topics many families quietly struggle with.

Wendy Schofer was a great teacher in residency and I continue to be inspired by her! Highly recommend this podcast as a person/parent and as a Pediatrician!

Nice, thoughtful discussion about health and wellness!

Wendy is so down to earth, and a pediatrician…. It’s such a good mix of wisdom and humor…. Family in Focus is helping me really refocus my family’s journey from weight loss to living and moving our bodies.This has my laughing while I learn and feeling like it’s ok to be human and mama.

I enjoy listening to Dr. Wendy Schofer’s podcast on my commute to hear insights into many misinformations on health and weight. I enjoy hearing about reframing and focusing on what we can do ( as opposed to what we cannot or should not do).

What I love about Wendy’s approach is that it is universally valuable. She shares insights that help us all to live as more energized, effective, joyful human beings. Parenting healthy and happy humans is just one area of my life where I can apply these golden nuggets of truth. Thank you, Wendy!

This is the best pediatric podcast to discuss healthy weights for our children! Highly recommend you listen.

Love the topics Wendy shares and the energy and wisdom she brings to each episode. Highly recommend this podcast for parents that are ready to thrive in all areas of parenthood and life.

Great job, Wendy! I just listened to your fast food show, and it was practical, real advise with a dose of humor. I’ll listen to more!
