Testimonials

Morgan Theis, Stanford University Medical School
Course Organizer, Queer Health & Medicine Lecture Series

"Amy Andre fills a much-needed niche by explicitly acknowledging and exploring the health experiences of a huge percentage of our population--bisexuals! Beginning with a clear explanation of terms and the scope of her discussion, she then builds the rationale for studying and discussing bisexual health, and presents evidence of some of the health behaviors that put bisexual people at risk for (or protect them from) various health outcomes--many of which were a surprise to even those of us who are bisexual. Calm and open to the thoughts of the audience, Amy left many of us brainstorming on how we could contribute to better serving our many bisexual patients."


Grad Student, Towson University

"Amy Andre provided a wonderful opportunity for students to challenge their conceptions of sexuality and various identities in the LGBT community. Amy fielded difficult questions with poise and helped students engage in critical analysis as we examined our own assumptions and biases. Amy's honesty kept her talk grounded and established a safe environment to ask difficult questions. Students were able to connect Amy's talk to developments in their own lives or research questions they were currently wrestling with. The open and free dialogue that followed Amy's talk brought up many different perspectives that helped complicate issues of sexuality. I left with more questions than I started with -- something I always appreciate as a student and researcher."
