Racism is an omnipresent public health burden,” said Dr. Michael LeNoir, one of the nation’s top Black physicians and AAWP’s founder. “We believe that health disparities will exist if we allow them to continue and that through partnerships with companies, like VNR1, we can help eliminate disparities in health and healthcare for African Americans,” added Dr. LeNoir, a past president of the National Medical Association who also has more than 25 years in broadcasting.
