Description

The WoMed is here for you this week with a dose of inspiring news in these crazy times! On today’s episode, host D speaks to super gal team Dr. Nana Afoh-Manin, MD and tech founder Stacy Kirk who collaborated to create the web application myCovidMD which helps under-resourced communities get free testing and access to telehealth services during the Coronavirus Public Health crisis. Dr. Nana and Stacy discuss with D the need for human connectivity in the medical and tech world as well as ways to care for under-resourced communities, keeping in mind both race and class. They also talk about the importance of not only collecting medical data, but also keeping it secure in this COVID era.

The WoMed is a space to discuss, debate, and celebrate all things Women in Medicine! Danielle Maltby is joined by co-host Jackie Camardo to bring new issues and faces to light in the medical community. These nursing vets bring humor, reality, and a serious passion for the world around them to discussions on self-care, emerging healthcare trends, education, activism, patient stories, and pop culture representation of the industry. The hosts welcome not just women in medicine, but members of the LGBTQ communities in medicine as well, to ensure more people have a platform to amplify their voices. They are also joined by some of the industry’s biggest experts and thought-leaders! Nothing is off-limits, so listeners should come prepared to laugh, (maybe cry), and tune in to meaningful conversations that could change the way you see healthcare.
