Anti-Black racism not only impacts the care a patient receives, but whether they seek care in the future. In this study, participating physicians responded to clinical scenarios in which anti-Black racism was a patient concern, describing prior similar experiences and offering potential strategies to address anti-Black racism. Validation and mutual understanding were identified as potential strategies. Significantly, only two of the 21 participants mentioned apologizing as an important step in taking responsibility.
