This August, we were excited to welcome Dr. Derek Griffith to our Customer Care Hour!

Dr. Derek M. Griffith is a Founding Co-Director of the Racial Justice Institute, Founder and Director of the Center for Men’s Health Equity, Member of the Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center, and Professor of Health Management & Policy and Oncology at Georgetown University. He also serves as the Chair of Global Action on Men’s Health — a global men’s health advocacy organization.

We were fortunate to have the opportunity to hear directly from Dr. Griffith as he shared his deep knowledge and insights on men’s health equity. His presentation covered the blind spots inherent to the mindset that men often have about their own health, as well as how to help men to focus on balancing their personal well-being with the other demands of their life.

Watch Dr. Griffith’s presentation for concrete suggestions on how to help the men in your life, or your male patients, to connect their core personal values and goals with their health behaviors and health outcomes.

CareMessage Customer Care Hour is a bi-weekly learning opportunity where we share ideas and feedback with our customers, and allow them to ask questions and interact with other CareMessage users. Contact us to learn more!
