Andrea and Grace discuss the results of the study, and how patients and providers can use these results to further positive interactions. Mentioned in this episode: the campaign SpeakEndo.com, the Today Show’s series Dismissed, and the article  Detecting implicit racial bias in provider communication behaviors to reduce disparities in healthcare, by Hagiwara et. al.
