Grappling with Post-Pandemic Burnout and Trauma

The Power of Diversity in Medicine

Dec 08, 2022 - Teaching cultural competency only gets you so far in medicine. It鈥檚 made us nicer, posits one physician, but it hasn鈥檛 really addressed health disparities and inequities. Instead, training more diverse students to be part of health care teams builds trust all around and creates a more holistic understanding of a patient鈥檚 needs. It also inspires more diversity. As they say: You can only be what you can see. Listen in as a medical student and his mentor discuss the promising future of an increasingly diverse workforce.

While medical school is characterized as a high-pressure environment aimed at academic achievement, programs like  bring students, faculty, and staff together to support and challenge one another to maintain a focus on one鈥檚 highest purpose in medicine.
