People Doing Good Work In DEIA

David Mendez (he/him), Physician

STFM Mentorship Program

Robert | Family Medicine Jan 4, 2023
David Mendez - Spotlight

#Medicine
#LGBTQ+
#Latino

Fun quirky fact about David: I picked up knitting at the beginning of COVID and now I can't stop. I love visiting yarn stores when I travel to new cities. 

Why is diversity, equity, inclusion, and anti-racism important to you?
DEIA is something I became more passionate about after going through STFM's mentorship program for URM individuals. I think creating support for individuals with various backgrounds and identities helps in creating community and a safe space to share struggles that can sometimes be difficult to talk about. Mentorship can be a great place for this to happen.
