Eric Iorfido Leaders
I'm a rural rheumatologist who, in response to a need in my community, developed an interstitial lung disease clinic. When the COVID-19 pandemic struck, my skillset as well as my background in clinical research enabled me to play a leading role in my region's fight against the virus. I'm part of a small team of medical providers that treats all of the inpatient COVID-19 patients in my rural health system. I'm also one of the people who helps develop new clinical trial opportunities for my health system. One of my chief interests is in developing strategies for improving healthcare delivery to rural communities. To learn more, visit my website at www.ruralamericaandcovid19.com.
