Description

In this episode of The NOCE Dose, host Bianca D. McCall, LMFT welcomes Dr. Eboni January—physician, author, and advocate—for a transformative discussion on empathy, maternal health, and the human side of medicine. Together, they examine how opioid use disorder impacts mothers and families, challenging traditional systems that punish rather than support.

Dr. January shares her experiences as both a provider and a mother, emphasizing that true healing begins with compassion—for patients and practitioners alike. This conversation explores the power of education, cultural competence, and self-care in reshaping healthcare systems, inspiring doctors and communities to lead with care, not cuffs.
