Approaching Inequity in Healthcare as a Clinical Problem

Esther Choo, MD MPH is an Associate Professor in the Center for Policy and Research in Emergency Medicine at Oregon Health & Science University. She is a practicing physician and researcher, with expertise in drug policy, injury, and gender disparities in healthcare. With some experience in journalism, coming from a public health background and now a physician-scientist , and being an activist for women and minorities in healthcare, the intersections of Esther’s interests and passions come to a head in everything that she does. From founding her company Equity Quotient, a company that provides metrics of healthcare culture, to helping found TIME’S Up Healthcare, an initiative of the TIME’S UP Foundation, her heart and head for investigating issues in healthcare, policy, advocacy, and equity, are inspiring to see. I’m excited for you to take a listen!
