Season 1 Episode 127 Published 5 years ago
Description

America has long been a country at the head of innovation and culture, but for some reason, it can’t catch up when it comes to healthcare. Today, Dr. Maria Hernandez joins Dr. Taz to discuss the complex issues that have been weighing down the healthcare system in the States, including the many unconscious biases healthcare professionals may harbor. Learn about how COVID has disproportionately affected minorities, why doctors are also victims of the system as well, and what we can do to be better advocates for our own health, and those that are most vulnerable.
