Description

On this episode, Dr. Michael Robinson joins us to discuss his recent perspective piece detailing a striking healthcare disparity that exists regarding melanoma detection among people of color. Although non-Hispanic White individuals are diagnosed with melanoma at 30x the rate of Black individuals, Black individuals die from melanoma at nearly 9x the rate compared to non-Hispanic White individuals. Dr. Robinson helps shine a light on factors that contribute to this disparity and the role that we, as PTs, can play addressing it.
