Microaggressions in Medicine introduces a novel account of microaggressions and applies it in medical contexts. Guided by diverse patient testimonies and case studies, it focuses on harms experienced by patients marginalized on the basis of race, gender, sexual orientation, body size, and disability. It makes a compelling case that the harms of microaggressions are anything but micro and argues that healthcare professionals have a moral obligation to prevent them. By proving practical strategies for healthcare professionals to reduce microaggressions in their practices, Microaggressions in Medicine will make a positive difference in the lives of marginalized patients as they interact with healthcare professionals. All patients deserve high quality, patient-centered care, but healthcare professionals must change their practices in order to achieve such equity.
