Humbled. Grateful. Inspired.

Last month in D.C., I received the 2025 Silver Innovator Award from the Alliance for Aging Research — an honor that means so much more than recognition.

This moment belongs to every patient in the Mississippi Delta, every family told amputation was their only option, and every community still waiting for health justice.

Innovation isn’t just about technology — it’s about transformation: of lives, systems, and possibilities.

From Nigeria to NJ/NY to the Delta… from loss to purpose… this journey is a reminder that medicine, at its best, is love in action. ā¤ļø

Thank you to God, the , Senator , my team, , and my family for believing that aging in America should be defined not by disparity, but by dignity.

ABC Policy Pulse Summit 2025

What an incredible day in Washington, D.C.! šŸ‡ŗšŸ‡ø
The ABC Policy Pulse Summit reminded us why we fight — to make sure where you live never determines whether your heart or limb survives. ā¤ļø šŸ¦µšŸ¾

I was honored to moderate two powerful sessions:
🩺 Ensuring Access to Cardiovascular Care Across Rural & Urban Communities
with Angelle Kwemo (Office of Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick)

ā¤ļø Addressing Access to Care Challenges in Cardiology Deserts
with Dr. Anthony Fletcher (ABC), Dr. Melvin Echols (ACC), & Alexis Apple of the ATA.

We were proud to announce Congresswoman Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick (D-FL) as the new Co-Chair of the Congressional PAD Caucus, alongside Congressman Gus Bilirakis (R-FL) — a truly bipartisan step forward in saving limbs and lives.

The momentum continues — from the success of Illinois SB1418, the first state law requiring PAD screening coverage, to the growing national support behind the Amputation Reduction and Compassion (ARC) Act, H.R. 307 — proof that advocacy, data, and compassion can drive real policy change. āš–ļø

Special thanks to Rep. Yvette Clarke (D-NY) & Congressman Herb Conaway, MD (D-NJ) for their inspiring remarks, and to Sen. John Boozman (R-AR) for his letter celebrating ABC’s 50 years of leadership.

Grateful to the Association of Black Cardiologists and Venable LLP for hosting and championing this mission.

Here’s to the partnerships, policies, and people who will keep driving change. šŸ’ŖšŸæ. Happy 50th Anniversary ABC! šŸŽ‰

šŸŒāœØ PAD Awareness Month āœØšŸŒ

Honored to join incredible peers at the (NMA) Professional Development Series in Washington, DC for a critical conversation:

Diabetes Care & the Cost of Amputation: A Health Economic Case for Limb Salvage.

šŸ’” We tackled how diabetes + PAD too often lead to preventable amputations—an epidemic devastating families and communities, especially in underserved areas.

The dialogue focused on solutions:
āœ… Awareness & early detection
āœ… Access to comprehensive care
āœ… Policy that makes limb preservation the standard, not the exception

Grateful to share the stage with leaders advancing health equity:
šŸ‘©šŸ¾ā€āš•ļø Dr. Alyson K. Myers (Moderator)
šŸ‘ØšŸ¾ā€āš•ļø Dr. Kevin E. Jefferson
šŸ‘©šŸ¾ā€āš•ļø Dr. Leslie S. Jones
šŸ›ļø Rep. Monica McIver

Together we reinforced the urgent call for policy action—including support for HR 307, the ARC Act (Amputation Reduction & Compassion Act).

šŸ™šŸæ Huge thanks to NMA leadership, President Dr. Roger Mitchell, and the executive/admin team for curating such an impactful session.

šŸŒšŸæ Honored to stand alongside Coahoma Community College at their Annual Scholarship Golf Tournament—a tradition that not only builds community but also opens doors for students whose futures depend on opportunity.

With 97% of CCC students requiring financial aid, this event is more than a round of golf—it’s an investment in lives, families, and the Delta’s future leaders.

At Cardiovascular Solutions of Central Mississippi (CVSCM), we are committed to serving our community beyond the clinic walls. This month, during PAD Awareness Month, we are reminded that just as scholarships change the trajectory of a student’s life, awareness and early detection of peripheral artery disease can change the trajectory of a patient’s life—preventing unnecessary suffering and even amputations.

šŸ’” Together, through education, advocacy, and action, we can create pathways for hope, health, and healing.

✨ Honored to participate in the 9th Annual Delta Health Summit in Southaven, MS, where I had the privilege of leading the provider education session on evidence-based lipid management.

On behalf of the Association of Black Cardiologists (ABC), I extend my deepest gratitude to the organizers and sponsors for creating a powerful platform to address health disparities and advance cardiovascular outcomes in the Mississippi Delta.

The energy, engagement, and commitment from attendees were inspiring. The overwhelmingly positive feedback reflects the urgency and importance of equipping providers with clear, practical tools that directly impact the lives of patients and families in our communities.

Together, through education, advocacy, and collaboration, we move closer to our shared mission: health equity and improved cardiovascular health for all.

šŸ™ Thank you again to ABC, our partners, and the sponsors who made this possible. The Delta Health Summit continues to be a catalyst for awareness, connection, and action.

šŸŒ Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) Awareness isn’t just about statistics—it’s about stories, journeys, and conversations that move the needle.

Over the past months, I’ve had the privilege of:
šŸŽ„ Sharing Bloodlines, Mississippi at festivals across the country,
šŸ‡øšŸ‡Ŗ Visiting Stockholm and the Nobel Prize Museum to reflect on the global impact of this work, and
šŸŽ¬ Engaging in powerful conversations with director Crystal Kayiza about how film can help shape public dialogue around health inequities and the silent epidemic of PAD.

These moments remind me that awareness is not passive—it’s an active pursuit. We cannot address what we don’t see. By shining a light on PAD, we aim to spark the conversations that will ultimately save limbs and save lives.

šŸ™šŸæ To everyone who has joined us on this journey—from near and far, from the festival circuit to community screenings, from policy discussions to clinical spaces—thank you. To every supporter on this platform and to every community affected by PAD: we see you, we honor your stories, and we affirm your worthiness.

The work ahead remains urgent:
āœ”ļø Increase awareness of PAD among at-risk communities
āœ”ļø Equip clinicians with tools to detect and treat earlier
āœ”ļø Push policy forward to close gaps in access

✨ Together, we can shift the narrative from neglect to action.

We’re honored to see Bloodlines, Mississippi—a powerful documentary highlighting the urgent fight against PAD and health disparities in the Mississippi Delta—featured at the Nobel Prize Museum. šŸŽ„ā¤ļø This film sheds light on the importance of access to care and the tireless work being done to save lives in our community.

As we recognize PAD Awareness Month, this story serves as an important reminder of why raising awareness and improving care matters more than ever.
