Today we are traveling to the Caribbean island of the Dominican Republic with our guest, Dr. Ana Yolanda Santos, to celebrate World Hemophilia Day. To honor the language of the people of the Dominican Republic, the conversation in this episode is completely in Spanish. Dr. Ana Yolanda shares her migration story to the United States, what life is like in the DR for people with bleeding disorders, and what we can learn from the Dominican people to enhance the quality of life for the bleeding disorders community in the United States.
