Dr. Atiq has just been voted President-Elect of the American College of Physicians. He has also been a leader in important ACP initiatives to address health disparities and ensure good health for all. In this video, Dr. Smyth talked with Dr. Atiq about why it is so crucial that we strive to eliminate disparities here in Arkansas and across the country.
