Description:
In this second part of our special series on Indigenous Health in Canada, we are joined by Dr. Lindsay Crowshoe, a primary care physician in Calgary and a member of the Piikani First Nation. He and guest host, UBC Rheumatologist Dr. Raheem Kherani, discuss ways doctors can make their practices more welcoming to Indigenous patients, the importance of understanding the impacts of colonization on Indigenous people, and why the healthcare system is often not seen as a place of healing for them. They also discuss the impacts of Residential Schools and systemic racism and respectful ways to approach conversations about those impacts with survivors.
