Cultural competency is defined as a set of academic and interpersonal skills that allow individuals to increase their understanding and appreciation of cultural differences and similarities within, among, and between groups. There has been a great push for increasing cultural competency in many areas of life, especially in medical training. As physicians we interact with a wide range of people from varying cultures. How we deal with the differences and similarities of our cultures impacts patient care.
