Health equity isn’t just about access—it’s about being heard, respected, and included in decisions about your care. In this episode, Sandy Kibling sits down with cancer scientist and health equity advocate Eugene Manley Jr., PhD, to unpack why so many patients—especially in marginalized communities—leave appointments confused, dismissed, or unheard.
Eugene shares his personal journey from inner-city Detroit to nonprofit advocacy, including firsthand experiences with medical racism and the real consequences of miscommunication and inaccurate documentation.
