Welcome to our podcast 'Hope in the Deep End', brought to you by the Shared Health Foundation.

In this podcast series we are exploring all the different complexities of working in areas of deprivation, poverty and entrenched health inequalities. From clinicians to youth workers, we want to inspire, challenge and give inspiration to all those that work in the deep end.

This episode was recorded as part of Shared Health’s annual Doctors in Deprivation Training Day - a day of learning, inspiration and encouragement for GPs and clinical leads working in the Deep End of medicine. If you’re interested in attending our next training day, visit our website.

Dr Lynda Odoh is an NHS GP Registrar with a Master’s in Public Health from the University of Manchester and training in Value-Based Healthcare from Harvard Business School. Her work interests are in frontline primary care, health equity, digital innovations, value-based healthcare and quality improvement.

Dr Lynda Odoh is particularly passionate about improving services through inclusive, patient-centred approaches that prioritise what matters most to the patients. In today’s episode, she shares insights from her own practice in improving prediabetes support from a culturally responsive lens, and what that means for GPs.
