Almost every week, Dr. Susan Partovi walks the streets of Skid Row, tracking down and checking in on her patients. Dr. Partovi does this not only because she is the medical director of Homeless Health Care Los Angeles, which provides basic health services for the homeless community, but because she sees herself in every patient she treats. She also works with programs like the Center for Harm Reduction, which gives patients access to clean needles and offers community training to reverse opioid overdoses. Dr. Partovi joins Giselle Fernandez on this episode of "LA Stories" to share stories from her work with the homeless population and her work internationally as the co-founder of H.E.A.L.
