Sept 15th - Oct 15th marks Hispanic Heritage month! During this time many Latinx countries celebrate their independence! 🎉

Happy #HispanicHeritageMonth! 🇲🇽 Despite the fact that ~20% of Americans identify as Hispanic/Latino/Latinx, only ~7% of active physicians identify as Hispanic/Latino/Latinx (6% in emergency medicine). Proud to be part of that 6-7%, but we can do better. In the meantime, we sing.

To get ready for #NationalLatinoPhysicianDay, Pico and I will be sharing an important fact about Hispanic/Latinx physicians each day from now until October 1st. #HispanicHeritageMonth
