How does healthcare access for food allergies differ for Hispanic and Latino communities? In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Vivian Hernandez-Trujillo to discuss how immigration status, language barriers, and cultural beliefs contribute to health disparities in managing food allergies and other allergic conditions.
We explore practical advice for patients, including advocating for yourself, navigating healthcare systems, and understanding your rights. Plus, we dive into the unique challenges of allergy testing, accessing medication, and managing food allergies within cultural practices.
You'll leave this episode with a better understanding of how to build a strong patient-doctor relationship, improve cultural competency, and ensure better healthcare outcomes.
