60 I Transforming Cardiometabolic Care: Innovation Meets Equity with Dr. Avantika Waring
We welcome back Dr. Avantika Waring from 9 AM Health to discuss her vision for cardiometabolic care, emphasizing equity in treating diabetes, obesity, hyperlipidemia, and hypertension through innovative virtual models. Dr. Waring highlights the importance of a diverse workforce in delivering culturally relevant care and addressing structural inequities. We delve into the challenges of making medications like semaglutide accessible to all, the complex interplay of diet, environment, and genetics, and the need for family-inclusive health interventions. Through thoughtful conversation, we explore how equitable access to healthcare can transform patient outcomes and the importance of addressing both medical and social determinants of health.
