Ob/Gyn board review with the objectives stated up front.
CREOGs Over Coffee is an Ob/Gyn board review show in which Faye and Nick take a clinical topic, set out learning objectives and walk through guideline-level management. Its feed runs from anticoagulation in pregnancy and osteoporosis screening to mock oral-board cases made with the surgical podcast Behind the Knife.

CREOGs Over Coffee is an Ob/Gyn board review show that treats clinical topics as a series of decisions to get right. Faye and Nick open with a relaxed greeting and then get down to business. Faye turns to Nick for the learning objectives, and he lays them out before the material begins. You can see the approach in 'Reprise - Episode 87: Inherited Thrombophilia and Anticoagulation in Pregnancy', a topic that came from listener requests. Its objectives run from why pregnancy tips the body toward clotting to how inherited thrombophilias and a personal history of thromboembolism change anticoagulation needs during and after pregnancy. The management talk is detailed. A low-risk thrombophilia with no personal or family history may call for surveillance alone, while added risks such as a C-section and obesity make prophylactic heparin after birth worth considering. 'Reprise - Episode 155: Update to Osteoporosis' returns to a subject the show counts among its oldest. Its objectives cover definitions, risk factors, screening and ACOG-endorsed prevention, and it warns against jumping straight to a DEXA scan. Height loss comes up as a possible marker of an unnoticed vertebral fracture, and the discussion notes that the USPSTF and the Endocrine Society do not recommend routine vitamin D screening in adults without symptoms. Guests widen the range. 'Reprise - Episode 183: Perinatal Mental Health' features two guests from maternal mental health programs, including Dr. Nancy Byatt, and covers tools such as the Mood Disorder Questionnaire for spotting bipolar disorder before an SSRI is prescribed. A separate strand comes from a collaboration with Behind the Knife, a surgical podcast that hosts an oral board review Faye and Nick put together for the OB-GYN generalist oral boards. These episodes use a different format: an examiner presents a case, and an examinee answers as if the exam were real. The introduction acknowledges that real exam answers will be leaner than the show's own teaching. One case follows a 39-year-old patient five days after an abdominal myomectomy with incisional pain, redness and drainage, and it closes with a summary of infection-prevention measures and fascial closure technique. Another moves through menopause, from non-hormonal options such as SSRIs, gabapentin and clonidine to low-dose vaginal estrogen, and ends on ACOG's position against routinely stopping hormone therapy at 65. The feed has also shared an episode of Outlawed, another OB-GYN podcast, where the conversation turns to clinicians who are unsure what the law requires them to report after the Dobbs decision. Around the teaching there is some supporting material: show notes on the website, a weekly review question, a Patreon, and an email address for corrections and episode ideas. For a first listen, the numbered reprise episodes show the objective-led teaching format, and the Behind the Knife cases suit someone rehearsing spoken answers. The tone is friendly and conversational, but the content is dense with thresholds, dosing tiers and guideline names.
Made for: Suits an Ob/Gyn learner studying for board exams who wants management decisions tied to ACOG and other guideline recommendations. Also a fit for someone practicing for the generalist oral boards through mock examiner-and-examinee cases.
What sets it apart: It pairs objective-led teaching episodes with mock oral-board cases made with the surgical podcast Behind the Knife, so a listener hears material both taught and examined. Listener requests and emailed corrections have a visible place in how the show is made.
