- African Americans make up 13% of the U.S. population, but only three percent of skin doctors across the nation are Black Americans. Dr. Jenna Lester discusses the serious consequences of the industry's lack of diversity when it comes to care and what needs to be done.

One of the best feelings is when you have something wrong with you and a dr finally tells you what is. So emotional to know the name of your disease or disorder
So train dermatologist to treat all skins colors. Problem solved
You would think that but seeing that we are in 2022 and this still is not being done in medical school is ridiculous. This same problem happens in cosmetology schools. That don't teach how to do all hair types.
JAEDEN....PROBLEM SOLVED INDEED....A DR. WORTH THEIR SALT WILL BE TRAINED TO TREAT ALL PEOPLES.....AND YOU BEST BELIEVE THAT'S THE DR. FOR ME.....HEAR ME NOW!!!😍
So basically his old dermatologist needs to go back to school.
No. They need more representation in school books.
I went to a dermatologist and was misdiagnosed myself and they prescribed medication that actually made the issue worse!

I only see a black Dermatologist. My skin has gotten better 100%
I would say this is more a matter of all dermatologists, current and upcoming, needing to be educated and trained on treating melanated skin, and not really a dearth of dermatologists of colour. For example, if you were to look up descriptions of rashes, you most often would seen them described as red. But on melanated skin, especially the richer the pigment, rashes don't often present the same. If you pull up a google image search on rashes, you'll find a plethora of white & paler skin tones with red raised rashes. It'll take you some scrolling if you come across a photo with melanated skin. So there is a lack of medical reference for a certain demographic of people. And a result can be a lack of treatments or mistreatments. So, yes, this topic is relevant, but not because there's a lower percentage of melanated dermatologists.
Great story
This has nothing to do with diversity but with training and education. . The science of skin care does not change based on the race
Thats definitely not true. The needs and skin care of someone thats black with heavily melanated skin is very different than someone white that has little to no melanin and different from someone who might be in the middle. They pretty much stated that in the clip if you watched it
The training and education itself need diversity. They will need to include the study of dark and brown skin. To add on that more than us, common people, a diverse group of skin care professionals can be a better advocate. They can research and publish studies on matters that concern black people which might not be an obvious concern for light skin individuals. Until the training and education is incorporated in the system, we will continue relying on people who have the same skin color like us since they might have a better understanding of our condition.
3rd. Great story!
I would want my own ppl treating my skin.
Yes, most definitely
That's racist. What if a white guy said such a thing?
@@madtrucker0983 No it is not the way Doctors treat bp are different I have been diagnosed wrong two many times almost died so don’t tell me a dam thing and how to feel
@@deelee5244 No I actually agree with you believe it or not. I'm just pointing out the hypocrisy. I would actually rather be treated by a white male. Not that I would think a black is inadequate it's just that I relate with a white guy better. Yet if I were to say something like that it would be considered racist.
All of this needs to change! Remember the song Jesus loves the little children, all the little children in the world, red yellow black or white! They are precious in in his sight, they are precious in his sight, god loves the little children in the world! For goodness sake everyone deserves great medical care!
Funny racial diversity is not a concern in industry were they are dominant
And what industry would that be
@@biscaynesupercars Professional basketball, maybe?
@@nghtwtchmn129 where the majority of owners, coaches and general managers are white? That professional basketball??
When was the last time you saw an all-white starting lineup in the NBA?
@@nghtwtchmn129 the 80s. When was the last time you saw a predominately black front office or coaching staff in the nba?
Complaining that the majority of nba players who are employees is like complaining that the majority of agricultural field workers are hispanic. Also basketball is a sport and sports are one of the most fair and objective industries in the world. If white and non black basketball players are good enough to play in the nba they will be. There’s no policy and has never been any policy keeping white players out of the league
