This research quantitatively demonstrates disparities in healthcare quality experienced by transgender patients. Using objective clinical quality measures rather than personal testimony alone, it shows transgender patients receive recommended treatments less often. Encouragingly, providers with greater experience treating transgender patients deliver more equitable care, highlighting the importance of education and clinical exposure.
This research examines how continuity of care at Federally Qualified Health Centers affects low-income adults as they age into Medicare eligibility. Using national Medicare and Medicaid data, it investigates whether maintaining long-term primary care relationships improves health outcomes, informing policies that strengthen community healthcare services and support healthy ageing.
This research investigated whether AI-guided handheld ultrasound can help diagnose deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in primary care. Through a systematic review, a clinical study involving 565 patients, and stakeholder interviews, the research found promising results but highlighted challenges involving image quality, accountability, and integration into NHS healthcare systems.
This 3MTĀ® presentation describes how artificial intelligence can help non-specialist clinicians diagnose deep vein thrombosis using AI-guided handheld ultrasound devices. By enabling faster point-of-care diagnosis in GP surgeries, the project aims to reduce hospital referrals, improve accessibility for vulnerable patients, and help healthcare systems manage increasing clinical demand more efficiently.
My research examines how OSCE (Objective Structured Clinical Examination) role-play simulations help prepare nurse-practitioner students for real-world primary care. Interviews with recent graduates show role plays build confidence, teach communication and clinical routines, and improve readiness for complex cases. Following best-practice guidelines enhances learning. Expanding these simulations could strengthen primary care, especially in underserved rural areas.
