A conversation with Dr. Hughes Halbert, a professor of population and health sciences at the University of Southern California and a specialist at the Norris Cancer Center, focusing on cancer equity. The discussion revolves around the critical role of trust in healthcare, especially among black communities, and how it affects their healthcare decisions, treatment options, and overall wellbeing. Dr. Halbert talks about the importance of transparent communication between patients and healthcare providers, the impact of participation in clinical trials without proper feedback, and strategies to improve trustworthiness in healthcare systems. Additionally, we discuss incorporating patient lived experiences and diversifying genomic databases to enhance cancer care and treatment outcomes. The conversation concludes with insights into patient navigation programs and the need for empowering patients to make informed healthcare decisions.
