Uché Blackstock, MD, is a physician and thought leader on bias and racism in health care. Blackstock founded Advancing Health Equity in 2019 with the goal of partnering with healthcare organizations to dismantle racism in healthcare and to close the gap in racial health inequities.

In 2019, Blackstock was recognized by Forbes magazine as one of “10 Diversity and Inclusion Trailblazers You Need to Get Familiar With”. In 2020, she was one of thirty-one inaugural leaders awarded an unrestricted grant for her advocacy work from the Black Voices for Black Justice Fund. Blackstock’s writing has been featured in the Chicago Tribune, Scientific American, the Washington Post and STAT News for the Boston Globe.

In April 2021, she became an exclusive medical contributor for MSNBC and NBC News. In June 2021, Blackstock signed a book deal with Penguin Random House Books for her generational memoir, "Legacy: A Black Physician Reckons with Racism in Medicine." Legacy is due to be published in 2023.
