According to the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC), only five percent of active physicians identified as Black or African American in 2018, and the number of Black women in medicine is even lower... around just two percent. Amplifying the voices of Black physicians is the best way to enhance diversity and appreciate the challenges minorities face when pursing a career in the medical field.
