Dr. Skattum Featured on the Cover of Empire Magazine

We are incredibly honored to share that Dr. Skattum has been featured as the cover story of Empire Magazine, a milestone moment not just for her, but for Britt Haus and for the future of women’s healthcare in our community.

This feature offers a deeper look into Dr. Skattum’s journey, her mission, and the vision that inspired the creation of Britt Haus. It’s a story rooted in courage and a refusal to accept a healthcare system that wasn’t serving women the way it should.

A Story Built From Listening

Dr. Skattum’s path into medicine was shaped by really listening to women who felt dismissed, rushed, or misunderstood in traditional healthcare settings. Over time, a pattern became impossible to ignore: women were craving care that was thorough, relational, and respectful of their lived experiences.

Rather than working within a system that prioritized speed over substance, Dr. Skattum chose to build something different.

The Mission: Care That Feels Human Again

At its core, Dr. Skattum’s mission is to restore humanity to medicine. That means longer appointments, fewer barriers to access, and a focus on prevention rather than reaction.

It means acknowledging that hormones, mental health, stress, trauma, lifestyle, and environment are not “side notes,” but central pieces of the health puzzle.

Through Britt Haus, Dr. Skattum practices relationship-based care that allows patients to be seen as whole people, not problem lists.

Redefining Women’s Healthcare

The Empire Magazine feature highlights Dr. Skattum’s vision to redefine women’s healthcare from the ground up.

This vision challenges outdated norms that treat women’s symptoms as inconveniences or overreactions. Instead, it embraces:

• Autonomy and informed decision-making

• Preventive, proactive care

• Honest conversations without judgment

• A healthcare environment that feels calm, safe, and empowering

Britt Haus is designed to be a healthcare home, a place where women feel supported through every season of life.

A Moment of Gratitude

Being featured on the cover of Empire Magazine is a meaningful recognition of the work Dr. Skattum is doing, but more importantly, it shines a light on a growing movement toward better care.

We are deeply grateful to the patients, community members, and supporters who believe in this vision and trust Britt Haus with their care.

This feature is a reflection of how far we’ve come and a reminder of what’s possible when medicine is practiced with intention.

Here’s to redefining women’s healthcare, together.
