In this episode, we examine the complexities of neurodiversity within clinical environments and higher education. Dr. Devon Price discusses the nuances of masking, strategies for navigating academic systems as a neurodivergent individual, and the unique dynamics of concordant care, specifically when both the provider and the patient share neurodivergent identities. We also explore practical approaches for better supporting neurodivergent patients in the clinical setting to ensure more effective, identity-affirming healthcare.
