“Understanding systemic barriers is critical to improving access to migraine treatment. By fostering cross-cultural understanding, we can drive meaningful change in healthcare,” states Dr. Larry Charleston, MD.
Dr. Hope O’Brien, MD, adds, “These programs pave the way for a more inclusive healthcare system where every patient feels seen, heard, and treated with dignity.”
Community Impact
Calvin L. Butts Jr., CE Health Interactive board member, underscores the importance of these initiatives: “Health disparities are a major concern in our community. These programs demonstrate a commitment not only to educating healthcare providers but also to empowering patients. Everyone deserves access to quality care.”
Both CME programs will be delivered through webinars and interactive sessions, offering collaborative discussions and case studies that reflect the diverse experiences of migraine patients.
