In Sixteen Years of Endometriosis
120: Bias in Healthcare with Patient and Practitioner Kimether Redmon
Today I’m speaking with Kimether Redmon about:
-Trauma-informed medical care.
-Some biases a person may face in the medical setting.
-Personal biases that Kimether has faced.
Who is Kimether Redmon?
She is an endometriosis patient as well as a Family Nurse Practitioner serving low-income uninsured patients in her area. Before her nursing career, she was a research consultant with a background in brain injury research, and employment.
Being diagnosed with stage 4 endometriosis in 2021 after over 20 years of countless incidents of dismissal, gaslighting, bias, and incompetency has fueled her own diligence as a healthcare provider and educator that prioritizes high quality, trauma informed care to all.
