Learn how AI could transform primary care and what this means for the future of general practice. 🔗 Read in full on our website: https://lnkd.in/eFqAfHk6 #GPFrontline #TeamGP

"Coming from a family of black doctors thriving in the NHS I’ve personally seen how we can create our own narratives despite where we’re from and our cultural backgrounds.

Dr Emeka Okorocha, is an NHS Doctor, GP Trainee, Author of “Your Health in Your Hands” and TV Medic and Personality. This Black History Month, we're honouring our amazing GP members who are ‘Reclaiming Narratives' by recognising and correcting the narratives of Black history and culture. Thanks so much for sharing your story with us Emeka! #BHM2024 #ReclaimingNarratives
