An Internal Medicine physician and Assistant Professor of Medicine, his research and education initiatives focus on the intersection of health and carceral systems. His own primary care practice is dedicated to patients transitioning home from jail or prison. Dr. Spencer’s work centers community based partnerships that emphasize prevention of harm and alternatives to punitive systems.

As a 4th-year medical student, she is committed to developing a liberatory medical and psychiatric practice rooted in justice and structural change. As a middle school science teacher in Baltimore, she witnessed how systemic neglect shaped her students' health and learned that healing cannot happen in isolation from the forces that make people sick. These classroom experiences revealed the limits of individual intervention and furthered her commitment to addressing health at its roots. She envisions a practice where clinical excellence and advocacy are inseparable. She believes liberation and healing are inextricably linked, and that physicians must play a role in dismantle the systems harming patients.
