    a dose of race in medicine

    this week, we are thrilled about our interviewees and topic at hand: a dose of race in medicine. this is a vital topic to explore when trying to understand and address the complexities that affect our patients, fellow colleagues and society in general. this can be an uncomfortable topic, and while that is part of the challenge, we hope that this discussion can help to create conversation about this important issue! we interviewed 2 pros on this topic and paired it with a casual morning tea to start us off. and yes, jack did give us the long-awaited updates on his dude wipes and dog clippers!
