Our colleagues at the Tour for Diversity in Medicine join us for a special panel of physians who share their experiences as physicians in Texas during the COVID-19 pandemic as part of the #BIPOCinMed series. Our panel includes:

• Dr. Alden Landry
• Dr. Minerva Arenas
• Dr. Brandon Henry
• Dr. José Cruz

About Tour for Diversity in Medicine: Conceived by former medical student leaders, Tour for Diversity in Medicine is a grassroots effort to educate, inspire, and cultivate future minority physicians and dentists. Current trends in racial and ethnic health care disparities are widely documented and a major focus of many recent federal and state health policy changes. One frequently discussed solution is the need to increase the number of minority providers.
