We recently worked with the Black Physicians’ Association of Ontario (BPAO) to raise awareness of their mandate, the work they have done and their Annual Health Symposium in Toronto.

The BPAO works for equitable representation of the Black population in medicine and to ensure racialized health disparities are eliminated.

Read in NOW Toronto why Ontario Black doctors continue to call for more representation in the health-care system. Watch the discussion with BPAO’s president Dr. Andrew Thomas and executive director Chenai Kadungure on The Dr. Vibe Show to find out why it is important to have more Black physicians in the province. Dr. Thomas also talked about the need for more Black Canadians in health care on CP24 Breakfast.
