In Willowbrook, Charles Drew University has been teaching medical students for 57 years. But it hasn’t solely trained aspiring physicians — until now.
The first class is made up of 60 students, most of whom are people of color, who were selected out of a pool of more than 900 applicants.
The program is designed to help fix that disparity, which officials believe will also lead to more patient trust among communities of color. Prothrow-Stith believes this is an opportunity for the students and the school to change not only the face of health care, but the long-term economic status of their community.
