Living With Cystic Fibrosis

I am excited that all of you will get to meet  Dr. Susanna McColley!!!!  I was so impressed with her commitment to CF and her incredible medical and life knowledge.  Dr. McColley works to promote equitable diagnosis and treatment in cystic fibrosis. As a white person, Dr. McColley talks about all that white privilege brings, and what we must remember along the way. "Privilege allows you to go through the world without additional scrutiny". She goes on to say, people who differ, who are not white, are still treated differently. Dr. McColley discusses this in today's  podcast.Dr. McColley's biography:Susanna A. McColley, MD, FAAP, ATSF is a pediatric pulmonologist whose research focuses on improving the health of people with cystic fibrosis though understanding health disparities, improving methods for screening and diagnosis, and testing new treatments.
