Episode Summary

In this episode of the Treat Us Right podcast, host David Williams interviews Dr. Kike Oduba, founder and CEO of Wellness Wits, and Luis Suarez and Laura Garcia, PhD of Sanarai. Dr. Oduba discusses how Wellness Wits is a digital health platform for shared medical appointments, which allows doctors to see multiple patients with similar diagnoses in one appointment, providing more time for each patient and creating a supportive community. She also emphasizes the importance of addressing medical misinformation and disinformation by involving doctors in the social narrative of patients with chronic diseases. Luis and Laura discuss how Sanarai aims to address the mental health needs of the Latino community by providing culturally sensitive mental health services in Spanish. They highlight the challenges of building a business and clinical practice in this space, but also the importance of focusing on prevention and emotional support to prevent the development of mental health disorders.
