For Dr. Harpreet Tsui, the belief that healthcare is a human right is not just a slogan; it's a conviction shaped by years of caring for patients whose access to treatment is limited by policy decisions, insurance loopholes, and financial strain. As the founder of Coronado Health Direct Primary Care in Las Vegas, she sees firsthand how health policies affect the most vulnerable in the community.

"I just feel like healthcare is a basic right," she says. "If you live somewhere, you should get healthcare. What I don't like is that in most places, healthcare is tied to employment. People stay in jobs they hate just because they need the insurance. I understand the burden and what it does to your mental health. Eventually, that stress will impact your physical health."
