In this episode of big city small town with Bob Rivard, Bob has a conversation with a couple of female
entrepreneurs with vision-oriented focus on women’s healthcare access in the San Antonio area and
beyond.

As a potent force in women's health, co-founder and CEO of Hera Biotech, Somer Baburek, uses cutting-
edge AI technology to better diagnose and eventually treat diseases that uniquely impact women. Her focal point, endometriosis, is a prevalent yet under-diagnosed condition that she seeks to shine a light
on. With a determination to disrupt the norms in healthcare technology, Somer is making strides in
female reproductive medicine.

In a world where plans often shape our destiny, one woman's journey took an unexpected turn. Jennifer
Newell never intended to become an entrepreneur, but fate had a different plan for her. As she delved
into the realm of women's healthcare, a fierce drive ignited within her, propelling her into the creation of
Betty’s Co. Little did she know, this twist of fate would forever reshape the landscape of women's
healthcare accessibility in the San Antonio area.
