Episode 300: Healthcare Disparities Among Minority Populations with Dr. Lilyana Amezcua

Welcome to the 300th episode of RealTalk MS! Yikes!

In last week's episode of the podcast, Dr. Bruce Bebo walked us through the latest research on the prevalence of MS in the United States, and the data serves as a clear reminder that anyone can get MS.

However, not everyone with MS receives the same quality of care. My guest today is clinician-researcher Dr. Lilyana Amezcua, and we're discussing her work in exploring healthcare disparities among minority populations.

In addition to celebrating our 300th episode, we're also celebrating World MS Day! We'll let you know where you can join the virtual festivities.

And, as our RealTalk MS Listener Survey ends, we're announcing the winner of a $100 Amazon Gift Card.

Can Do MS is hosting a day-long in-person and virtual More About MS program this Friday, June 2. We'll give you the details and tell you how you can register for this free event.

And the International Progressive MS Alliance has announced a large-scale research program focused on developing solutions to some of the most challenging symptoms that people living with progressive MS face. We're sharing the details.

We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS??!

Welcome to our 300th episode! :25
