Hypertension, obesity, diabetes, smoking and sleep disorders are significant risk factors for heart disease, and are found more commonly in Black people. But an often overlooked factor is healthcare inequity. Join us and Dr. Keith Newby with real talk about how our overall health, our habits and healthcare inequities all play a role in determining the health of our hearts. Dr. Newby is a Cardiologist and the Director of Health Equity for Sentara.
