About us
BDO is the world’s largest and most comprehensive online health resource specifically targeted to African Americans. As much as we’d love for healthcare to be one-size-fits-all, the reality is that this is not the case – today’s Black community has higher incidences of just about every major disease and condition out there, as well as shorter life spans. BDO understands that the uniqueness of Black culture - our heritage and our traditions - plays a role in our health. We also understand that there's a lot of mistrust of the healthcare system. That mistrust, combined with all the contradictory information in the media today, makes it difficult to truly feel in control of your health, and your life. But BDO gives you access to innovative new approaches to the health information you need in everyday language – so you can break through the disparities, gain control and live your life to its fullest. Guided by the leading physicians, BDO provides essential, but difficult to find, health resources for you and your family, including free referrals to the top Black physicians and health articles that focus on both culturally accurate content, as well as general health topics (yes, Blacks suffer from conditions like diabetes more, but they can break an arm, too). Let us help you see how good it feels to be in control of living a healthier, happier life!

Advocating for yourself can be life-saving! During Breast Cancer Awareness Month, it's crucial to remember that early detection is key to survival. Don't be afraid to speak up, ask questions, and push for screenings, even when things feel uncertain. Your voice is a powerful tool in your healthcare journey, and no one knows your body better than you. Take action, prioritize regular check-ups, and ensure you're getting the care you deserve. Early detection saves lives—let's spread the word and encourage others to do the same. #BreastCancerAwareness #AdvocateForYourHealth #EarlyDetectionSavesLives #WomensHealth #SelfCare #HealthcareAwareness

This past weekend, BlackDoctor.org had an incredible time at the Society for Clinical Research Sites (SCRS) Global Site Solutions Summit, where we connected with industry leaders and presented groundbreaking strategies for recruiting Black patients for clinical trials. We’re bridging the gap between culture, technology, and healthcare to ensure Black Americans are well-represented in clinical research, and it was exciting to share our mission with companies that care about diversity in medicine. From grassroots partnerships to cutting-edge digital strategies, we are transforming patient recruitment and retention with a culturally relevant approach that works. A huge thanks to everyone we connected with, and stay tuned for what’s coming next! We’re ready to make a real impact together.
