75. Conversations about Race in Medicine

Dr. Kisha Davis (@kishadavismd) is a family physician and a Regional Medical Director at Aledade. She joins Josh (@DrJIsrael) and Joe (@JoeShonkwiler) to discuss her experience as a Black doctor, confronting implicit bias in medicine, and responding to this moment.

Dr. Emily Maxson is Aledade’s Chief Medical Officer. In the second part of the episode, she talks about how relying solely on data can perpetuate racial disparities in care and what Aledade is doing to address algorithmic bias.
