Join us for a conversation with Kara Wada, an adult and pediatric allergy, immunology, and lifestyle medicine physician, as she shares her personal journey with Sjogren’s. Discover how her experience as both doctor and patient has shaped her perspective on patient care, the challenges of diagnosing non-specific symptoms, and the systemic implications of Sjogren’s. Kara discusses the importance of empathy in medical training, the impact of health care disparities, and the urgent need to break outdated stereotypes about invisible illnesses.

Kara Wada is an adult and pediatric allergy, immunology, and lifestyle medicine physician.

She discusses the KevinMD article, “From doctor to patient: my Sjogren’s journey and a challenge to colleagues.”
