Abstract

An editorial is presented which discusses the value of intersectionality in clinical medicine, encouraging health professionals to recognize multiple marginalizations faced by patients, and to confront biases that impact clinician-patient encounters. It mentions the benefit of empirical bioethics in the acknowledgment of intersections of power and oppression in patients' and health care providers' lives.
