As an internist, she had cared for patients with renal disease. Then she fell in love with a man with end stage kidney disease. What she does next and the reasonings for her decisions are thought provoking.
Today she has a platform and has a lot to say regarding renal disease and health disparities within our healthcare system. 1 in 3 adults in the US is at risk for kidney disease. And Black Americans are 4-5 times more likely to develop kidney failure. Her knowledge, her humanity and her insight into renal disease particularly end-stage renal disease, dialysis, and renal transplant are worth listening to.
