How TCOM is Connecting Students with Muslim Patients
Asad Mehkri and Afra Fathima are second-year TCOM students who are married and Muslim. We hear about some things to know about when treating a Muslim patient. How physicians and future physicians can be more aware of Muslim practices and what they can do to make that connection with their patients. They also share some great history of Muslim contributions to medicine.
