Faces of Medicine
Faces of Medicine is an inspiring podcast series that illuminates the remarkable journeys of Black female physicians in America. Hosted by Dr. Khama Ennis, each episode features candid, in-depth conversations with doctors from the acclaimed documentary film, plus additional physicians whose stories deserve to be heard. With Black women representing only 2.8% of all US doctors, these voices have been historically underrepresented. Through intimate interviews, listeners gain unprecedented access to the challenges, victories, and humanity behind the white coat. From the allies who championed them to the barriers they overcame. Whether you're a future physician seeking inspiration, a healthcare professional committed to equity, or simply someone who wants to better understand the doctors caring for our communities, Faces of Medicine offers a transformative window into stories that will reshape how you see medicine. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
