Start the new year by connecting with fellow professionals and exploring a powerful discussion on racism in medicine. This event combines two enriching experiences: a networking happy hour with HBA members and leaders at Kite & Key, followed by an author event featuring Dr. Uché Blackstock at the Parkway Central Library. Whether you’re an HBA member or simply interested in learning more about our mission and activities, this is the perfect opportunity to build connections and gain valuable insights. Please note addresses for both are listed below.
