Leading us through the accessibility of refugee healthcare is Dr Ayla Cosh!

Dr Ayla Cosh is a GP and the Clinical Director of Cardiff and Vale Health Inclusion Service. Ayla has spent most of her working career in areas of high socioeconomic deprivation, in both frontline and non clinical settings. Her experience has provided insight into the issues many people in ‘health inclusion’ groups face when trying to access healthcare in traditional settings, and the challenges organisations face in trying to provide genuine patient centred care to these groups.
