There have been many changes made in the LGBTQ+ community for the better, but there is still work to do be done, especially as a health care professional.
As PRIDE month comes to a close, we have a special bonus episode featuring Danny Stephens, MD, National Director of Family & Child Wellness, about the impact of PRIDE and the LGBTQ+ community as a health care professional.
