On this episode, we are joined by Dr Inyang Takon, Consultant Paediatrician with expertise in Neurodevelopmental and Neurobehavioral Disorders.
It's always good to hear the perspective of a practicing medial professional who is also Black. We discuss:
- Why she chose to work in Paediatrics... she obviously doesn't agree with the saying 'never work with children' Lol!
- Practicing Paediatrics in Nigeria and in the UK
- Importance of cultural competence when working with Global Majority families when it comes to disability awareness and diagnosis. Walking with the journey with the family as she calls it, a Dr that gets it!
- The current challenge of waiting for years to get a diagnosis.
- Differences in how neurodevelopmental disorders presents in boys and girls.
- The pressure people with late diagnosis face.
- What parents should prepare for medical appointments & consultations.
