In this enlightening episode, Dr. Alyx Porter Umphrey, the first Black female neuro-oncologist in the U.S., shares her journey founding Elevate Med. This non-profit tackles the medical education crisis by providing scholarships, mentorship, and financial literacy to underrepresented medical students. Having personally overcome $500,000 in combined medical school debt with her husband, Dr. Porter Umphrey has helped award $1.2 million to 70 students nationwide. Her work addresses healthcare disparities by supporting future physicians from Black, Latino, and Native American backgrounds who will serve their communities with cultural understanding and trust. #ElevateMed #MedicalEducation #HealthcareEquity #DiversityInMedicine #MedicalScholarships #HealthFutures #MayoClinic #MedicalMentorship #HealthcareDisparity #FutureOfMedicine #BlackDoctors #IndigenousDoctors #LatinoPhysicians #MedicalSchoolDebt #FinancialLiteracy
