Dr. Paul Thomas on WJR with Larry Burns of Caring for Kids
This week, Dr. Paul Thomas was featured on Caring for Kids with Lawrence J. Burns, which was broadcast on WJR at 7 pm on December 31st. In case you missed it, there’s a re-broadcast of the program today, January 4th at 2pm and again at 12am (midnight) on Sunday January 5th.
We talked about a number of topics. We discussed how your health is influenced by where you’re born and where you live. We also discussed how there are too few physicians in the City of Detroit for the number of residents in the city, and that there’s a 10x disparity in primary care access between the City of Detroit and communities in Oakland County.
We’re very grateful to Larry Burns and his outstanding team for hosting us on the show. It was a great experience and a great opportunity to raise awareness around the critical issues of primary care shortages in Detroit and the ways we’re addressing the high costs of health care in the city and beyond.
The full episode will appear on this webpage when completed: https://yourchildrensfoundation.org/caring-for-kids/. Again, you can hear the interview on WJR AM 760 today at 2 pm and Midnight tonight.
Thanks for reading and listening, - Dr. Paul Thomas with Plum Health DPC
