Pebble Kranz ’07 MD writes: “I am pleased to share two recent professional milestones. As a sexual medicine and menopause medicine specialist, I serve as founder and medical director of the Rochester Center for Sexual Wellness, where our team is dedicated to advancing care for individuals of all genders across the spectrum of sexual and relational health. At the 2025 SSTAR (Society for Sex Therapy and Research) conference, I was honored with the Sexual Tipping Point Award for a presentation introducing a trauma-informed protocol designed to help individuals who have not been able to undergo pelvic exams due to prior trauma. This approach aims to reduce barriers to essential gynecological care through a stepwise, patient-led process that highlights consent, bodily autonomy, and empowerment in medical settings. Additionally, I recently contributed a chapter to the third edition of New Directions in Sex Therapy, focusing on sexual health education in medical training. I am grateful for the strong foundation Brown provided and for the mentors and colleagues who continue to inspire my work in this important field.”
