Rafia Miah is a final year medical student at the University of Southampton. She has been involved in numerous organisations and last year received a scholarship to be a part of the Healthcare Leadership Academy. Passionate about women’s health she has recently set up an organisation called Amar Doctor, meaning my doctor, an initiative specifically targeted towards Bengali women in the UK which aims to provide educational seminars on a variety of different health-related topics.
In this episode, we discuss why Bangladeshi women historically have the poorest health outcomes in the UK and strategies to address this issue. Rafia also shares her journey in setting up Amar Doctor, the importance of mentorship and ways to seek opportunities whilst in medical school.
