Implicit Bias & Institutionalized Racism Affecting Healthcare with Kailey Williams, ND Student

In this episode, ND student Kailey Williams joins me to discuss some extremely important topics such as what implicit bias is, how these biases impact healthcare and health outcomes, how we can check our own implicit biases, how we can be better allies and make it a lifestyle change, and even some ways in which our education must improve to better represent all BIPOC for the sake of better treatments and health outcomes.We unpack a lot but this will be an ongoing conversation of how we, as a profession, can continue to do better. Kailey M. Williams is currently a 4th year medical student pursuing a Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine at the Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine. Her intent is to address the holistic well being of her patients by focusing on the health of communities but empowering individuals with knowledge and tools they need to succeed.
