Abstract: Improving diversity in the healthcare workforce holds promise in improving the health outcomes of our diverse patient population. Attracting, recruiting, and retaining physicians from races and ethnicities that are historically underrepresented in medicine are vital in this effort. Increasing diversity at the graduate medical education level has the potential to positively reshape our physician personnel. In this editorial, we discuss the current state of diversity-oriented recruitment strategies for residency programs and present opportunities for future efforts.
