Congratulations to our program partners UNC Health and our amazing speakers Edwin Kim and Corinne Keet!

He presented study information, shared his medical insight, and answered questions about this new treatment option.

Kelli and April will help patients get the most out of their relationship with their providers. Clear communication, trust, and understanding are key components to getting the best healthcare. But how else can we, as patients, interact with our doctors and nurses to ensure we manage our condition most efficiently? Kelli and April will return in the afternoon where they will flip the script and discuss the ins and outs of shared decision making as well as help healthcare and social workers evaluate their patients’/clients’ needs more effectively. We will also explore the emotional burden of food allergies, talking about anxiety, disordered eating, and developmental awareness. #foodallergies #allergy #shareddecisionmaking #healthcareburden FOODiversity Ajinomoto Cambrooke, Inc.
