José Foppiani, MD - Post-Doctoral Research Fellow in Boston, Massachusetts

Driven by the mission of helping hundreds of thousands of people with his research, Dr. José Foppiani believes even a small change in medicine is worth putting his heart into because it impacts so many people.
Born and raised in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Dr. Foppiani completed his medical education in Prague, Czech Republic. While in Prague, he connected with Dr. Samuel Lin in Boston as a remote research fellow, spending late nights exploring big databases and identifying limitations of data claims.
Now continuing his fellowship in Boston, Dr. Foppiani uses his clinical experience to identify problems with care and direct it to research by thinking creatively and asking the right questions to get to the root of the problem.
With experience helping patients in Boston, the Congo, and the Czech Republic, Dr. Foppiani brings a unique perspective of the differences in medicine between the U.S., Africa, and Europe.

ABOUT MEET THE DOCTOR
The purpose of the Meet the Doctor podcast is simple. We want you to get to know your doctor before meeting them in person because you’re making a life changing decision and time is scarce. The more you can learn about who your doctor is before you meet them, the better that first meeting will be.
When you head into an important appointment more informed and better educated, you are able to have a richer, more specific conversation about the procedures and treatments you’re interested in. There’s no substitute for an in-person appointment, but we hope this comes close.
Meet The Doctor is a production of The Axis.
Made with love in Austin, Texas.
