Changes in the APOL1 gene can impose a 15 - 20% risk to develop chronic kidney disease. Learn more at @nephcure and the American Kidney Fund, and you can find a local genetic counselor @GeneticCouns. Happy APOL1 Awareness Day! #APOL1Aware

At this month’s Chair’s Clinical Conference @HowardU we continue to dissect cases and discuss best practices for caring for our pts. We took a moment to mention the #Election2024, and then to send some encouragement. Now, back to work practicing medicine.

White physicians shun Medicaid patients
New study shows that Black and Latino physicians are bearing a disproportionate burden caring for patients most in need, with these physicians far likelier to accept Medicaid than their white peers.

Yes @GoodGenesGC. I agree with the concept behind the perspective of @laurahercher, but the use of this word that, in the US is based on policy for intended, specific segregation of Black people in under-resoursed neighborhoods, is not worth the shock value it may provide.
