Dominican Voices in Surgical Care: Community Forum-ENGLISH ONLY

If you or a loved one have recently undergone surgery, or if you are a caregiver, your voice is crucial. We invite you to participate in small group discussions where you can share your experiences and concerns about surgical care. This is an opportunity to contribute to research that could significantly enhance the quality of healthcare within our community.

Your stories and experiences are powerful—they shape the narrative of our community and have the potential to drive meaningful change. At Dominican Voices in Surgical Care, we are not just discussing healthcare; we are actively collecting your narratives to ensure that the voices of the Dominican community are heard and reflected in the research that will improve our healthcare systems. Your input matters, and together, we can create a future where our stories influence better surgical care and healthcare equity for all.

In addition to the discussions, enjoy complimentary hand-crafted teas and refreshments from the Dominican Republic provided by Bohio Botanicals.
