He shares his experiences with Dr. Norris in an important conversation.  The pair discuss what their patients are experiencing and what they're experiencing as black physicians.  Dr. Norris is a consultation-liaison psychiatrist and medical school dean affiliated with George Washington University, Washington (@GWSMHS). Dr. Newsome will begin a fellowship in July at Children’s National Hospital (@ChildrensNatl).
