SEND US A TEXT MESSAGE!!! Let Drs. Nii & Renee know what you think about the show!
In this Docs Outside the Box episode, Nii and Renée take on two hot-button topics - abortion and gun violence. In the wake of the overturning of Roe v Wade and Uvalde, they explore the consequences for women who are denied abortions and the impact of gun violence on children and teens in our country.
They also tackle the lesser known and understood issue of the disproportionate number of black residents that are dismissed from their medical programs and whether it is an admission or systemic problem. Nii and Renée unpack the studies that look at these issues.
Things to expect in this episode:
- Nii and Renée’s professional and personal experience and outlook on the overturning of Roe v Wade
- A discussion of the Turnaway Study that followed 1000 women, over a decade, who sought an abortion in 21 states
- The professional implications of the overturning of Roe v Wade for doctors to medically treat pregnant women
- The impact and effects of gun violence on the lives of children and teens, a look at the studies and policy
