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.
- Why parents should pursue an assessment if they suspect their child may be different.
This episode is so loaded with so many nuggets. Please listen and let us know your thoughts.
