Dr. Joe Greer: Health Equity, Leadership, & Purpose

In this powerful Edutainment Learning interview, students meet Dr. Joe Greer, a physician, educator, and national leader in health equity who is redefining what medical education can—and should—look like. Dr. Greer shares his vision for building a bold, mid-21st century medical school in Las Vegas—one that unites students, educators, and the community to design inclusive, compassionate, and real-world healthcare solutions. Drawing from decades of experience serving underserved populations, advising U.S. Presidents, and founding nationally recognized programs like NeighborhoodHELP, Dr. Greer explains why medicine must address not just disease, but the social conditions that shape health. Students will hear stories from his work caring for homeless individuals, creating community health centers, shaping public policy, and leading some of the nation’s most influential institutions. This conversation goes beyond medicine—it’s about leadership, service, purpose, and using your education to lift others.
