This pandemic has lifted the veil of the disparities that already existed globally, especially when it comes to medicine. What is worse, not only has it revealed these problems, it has also exacerbated the marginalization of many communities. In this episode, Alaina Rajagopal sits down with Dr. Victor Cisneros, an attending physician and Graduate Medical Education (GME) Director of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion at Eisenhower Health. Dr. Cisneros discusses his upbringing as a Mexican immigrant and how this has affected his perspectives on diversity in medicine. He sheds light on the disparities in medicine and how the pandemic has highlighted under-resourced populations and regions. Tune in to hear more about what you can do in your community to help alleviate some of these issues and make an impact on society.
