Summary

In this 17th joint journal club with Annals of Surgery, we are joined by Dr. Sidra Bonner and Dr. Glenn Wakam, co-authors of the recently accepted paper "Covid-19 and Racial Disparities: Moving Toward Surgical Equity." Our two guests are residents at the University of Michigan who lead an excellent discussion around their recent work in which they challenge the common belief among surgeons that their practices are free from racial disparities, and propose tangible interventions to reduce systemic inequity in surgical care.
