Joel Bervell on Diversifying the Medical Field with TikTok

Joel Bervell shares how he’s already diversifying the field of medicine as a WSU Medicine student on Knock Knock Hi with Dr. Glaucomflecken and Lady Glaucomflecken. Known for medical mythbusting [00:48:00], Joel discusses how addressing racial bias in medicine can be the difference between waiting years for a kidney transplant [00:35:00], and the specialty area he’s applied for [00:10:00]. Through TikTok, Joel highlights vital issues and fosters humanity in healthcare, helping shape the future of medicine.
