51: Authenticity in Practice with Dr. Allyson Sutkowi-Hemstreet

What does it mean to be authentic in patient interaction? For Dr. Allyson Sutkowi-Hemstreet, it means not hiding any aspect of herself. Instead of trying to fit in, she found that she provided better patient care when she brought every aspect of herself into the patient-provider relationship. Now she works to bring that message to students and clinicians who may feel that being part of a marginalized group means being something other than yourself.
