Episode: One Doctor's Journey Through the AIDS Epidemic
Description: On his very first day at San Francisco General Hospital, Dr. Paul Volberding met his first AIDS patient – a moment that shaped his career and left an indelible mark on the fight against an epidemic. Now, more than 40 years later, Volberding reflects on the creation of Ward 86, the nation’s first HIV clinics, and how UCSF’s compassionate, community-first approach redefined HIV/AIDS care worldwide. The work of Volberding and UCSF’s dedicated clinicians and scientists laid the foundation for advancements that continue to save lives today. [Health and Medicine] [Show ID: 40986]
