Episode 18: Dr. Michael Galvez (Pediatric Hand Surgeon)
In Episode 18, I kick off the beginning of Hispanic Heritage Month with a dope convo featuring Pediatric Hand Surgeon Dr. Michael Galvez. We discuss how an early exposure to health disparities shaped his desire to practice medicine, how he fell in love with hand surgery, and what it means to be part of a national movement to establish Oct. 1 as National Latino/a/e Physician Day.
