339. Bias in the Canadian Medical System with Dr. Javeed Sukhera

Surgery 101

In this Current Conversation podcast on bias in the Canadian healthcare system, Surgery 101 is joined by Psychiatry and Paediatrics Associate Professor Dr. Javeed Sukhera, who is the incoming Chair of Psychiatry at the Institute of Living (IOL), and Chief of Psychiatry at Hartford Hospital in Connecticut. Hosted by Surgery 101 co-founder Dr. Jonathan White, this podcast episode covers the timely topic of bias, its influence in systems and learning, its visible and invisible impacts, and how to recognize our own bias and address it, something which isn’t talked about enough in medical school and residency education.
