?? Celebrating Black History Month at Elation PT! ??????
At Elation PT, we recognize the invaluable contributions of Black leaders in healthcare, and how their accomplishments continue to inspire the work we do every day… Trailblazers like Kenneth Frazier, who made history as the first black man to run a major pharmaceutical company; Dr. Jocelyn Elders, the first African American Surgeon General in the United States; Dr. James McCune Smith, the first black man to practice medicine with a medical degree in the U.S.; Dr. Rebecca Lee Crumpler, the first African American female physician in the United States, and Dr. Daniel Williams, who opened Provident Hospital in Chicago in 1983, the first black-owned hospital and first medical facility to employ an interracial staff.
We are committed to fostering an inclusive space where diversity, representation, and equitable care can thrive, no matter the situation. Because representation matters—not just in history, but in the future we’re building together. ?????
