Join pediatrician Uchenna Umeh as she shares her personal journey and professional insights on creating a more inclusive and affirming health care environment for LGBTQ+ patients. We delve into the challenges transgender individuals face in medical settings, the importance of understanding intersectionality, and practical strategies for health care providers to support their LGBTQ+ patients. Uchenna also discusses the critical role of allyship and how medical professionals can balance personal beliefs with their duty to provide compassionate care.

Uchenna Umeh is a pediatrician.

She discusses her KevinMD article, “Allyship in action: Supporting your LGBTQ+ patients.”

Our presenting sponsor is Nuance, a Microsoft company.
