In this video, chair Dr Ruw Abeyratne is joined by Dr Aicha Bouraoui and Dr Katie Malbon to explore health inequalities and raise awareness of health inequalities in the NHS. They discuss the prevalence and effect of inequality among their patients, the lack of confidence physicians have in discussing health inequality during routine care, prevention, and how clinicians can intervene when they become aware of socioeconomic factors hindering their health outcomes. They focus on the importance of seeing a patient as a whole, not just treating the condition they present with.
