Dr. Sharon Smith (OB-GYN) discusses the high costs of prescription drugs, including the strides made by the Biden-Harris administration to lower prices by allowing Medicare to negotiate, and how insulin price caps benefit millions of Americans. Finally, Dr. Dan (ER Physician) focuses on the mental health crisis exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly its impact on healthcare workers and underserved populations.   Join us as we break down these critical issues and explore how they influence healthcare access across the nation.   Meet the Doctors:   • Dr. Keisha Davis, M.D. –Pathologist, Speaker, drkeishadavis.komi.io • Dr. Sharon Smith, M.D. – Obstetrician-Gynecologist, Aesthetic Specialist sharonsmithmd.com • Dr. Dan, M.D. – ER Physician & Entrepreneur docdanmd.com   Key Resources: 1.
