Addressing the realities of disability and the practice of medicine
January 18, 2023 | 7:55 am to 9:00 am
Family doctors routinely treat patients with disabilities, but the medical profession often stigmatizes physicians living with disabilities themselves. Connect with your fellow family doctors to learn tips and strategies to adapt your practice and create an environment where everyone can thrive. Learn practical tips for how to navigate taking time off and discover where physicians or patients with disabilities can go for support.
