Why
You Need A Black Doctor or Health
Expert:
Black
doctors and physicians don't just
treat patients in urban communities.
They also speak out on health issues
that are pertinent to the Black community,
such as diabetes, cancer, heart disease,
lupus, and much more. Black health
experts (who aren't doctors) can still
provide their expertise on a variety
of topics including alternative health,
cleansing, fitness, and even healthcare
and public policy.
Black
doctors and health experts are great
interviewers for television and/or
radio shows. Many can elaborate on
seasonally-discussed topics such as
the flu virus, the common cold, or
even prostate cancer and breast cancer.
