Westbow Press A Doctors Prescription for Health Care Reform The National Medical Association Tackles Disparities Stigma and the Status Quo 2013 Edition by Rahn Kennedy Bailey MD Dfapa
The National Medical Association has championed efforts in eliminating health care disparities and stigma, while promoting reform since its inception. As a physician and educator, I know that information on these subjects is vital for today's medical school students to have at their fingertips. I believe this book can help make the entire medical community more responsive to these concerns.

Dr. Bailey is uniquely qualified to define the problems inherent in our health care system that perpetuates these stereotypes and to propose solutions.
