About this episode


Providing excellent care to all patients and minimizing racial disparities requires medical professionals to recognize and acknowledge differences within different populations. Having a diverse group of physicians -- regarding socioeconomic status, race, gender identity, and so on -- is vital.

In this episode, I speak with 4th-year medical student Ruffin Tchakounte. You will learn about his experience as a black med student, his goals to improve the health of his community, and much more!
