Abstract
We offered these research questions in the original research application:
1. How is racism and discrimination experienced in this setting?
2. How do experiences of racism impact future health-seeking behavior (e.g. iatrophobia)?
Consistent with qualitative research and emergent design, additional research questions have been added:
3. What factors are attributed to treatment in the clinical setting?
4. How can the clinical environment be changed to better serve Black women seeking reproductive health care?
