The Good Health Cafe
By Nikita Boston-Fisher
How do I navigate the healthcare system? What do I ask my doctor? What should I do when I'm not being heard? Why does it seem like researchers are unable to make up their minds about the guidance they provide? Our goal is to give you tips on how to navigate the healthcare system and understand other matters of public health in plain language. We will be sharing experiences and having candid conversations with guests on both sides of the health divide: practitioners and those of us they serve. Good Health Cafe conversations will leave you more empowered to take charge of your health and make you a better advocate for yourself and your loved ones. Health is more than healthcare so other topics that will be covered include mental health, health disparities, social issues and so much more. It’s a place for casual, insightful conversations to empower you on your health journey.
