Host, Dr. Rogan Thavarajah, talks with Dr. Tahmeena Ali about creativity and medicine, benefits of trauma informed care, power of unity for positive change in health care, adversarial versus collaborative cultures in health policy, and her role as President-Elect with BC Family of Doctors.
Rogan knew her as his predecessor as the Chair of the White Rock-South Surrey Division of Family Practice and in this conversation found her personal story and dedication to raising awareness around adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) to be deeply humbling. Rogan says "Of course with a person as dynamic as Tahmeena there is always a lot to talk about; writing her novel, her work in rural medicine and her journey as a leader."
