In her insightful article on NOLA.com, Margaret Delaney highlights the impactful work of Dr. Eric Griggs, a dedicated community health advocate in New Orleans. I’m proud to know Doc Griggs, having appeared on his WBOK 1230AM talk-radio show many times as an advocate for the Smoking Cessation Trust. With his guidance, the Trust successfully enrolled over 126,000 Louisiana smokers in a decade, all achieved through grassroots efforts and without any advertising. His passion for helping people overcome nicotine addiction is truly inspiring.
Doc Griggs has also been a steadfast supporter of STEM NOLA since its launch in 2013. He actively participates in STEM Saturdays, engaging with children to share the importance of healthcare and STEM education. His commitment to exposing, engaging, and inspiring future innovators through hands-on activities demonstrates his belief in the potential of young minds to create change in the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math. Through his work, he shows that learning can be fun and transformative.
Beyond his community work, Doc Griggs is known for his honest approach to healthcare communication. He believes that building trust requires constant dialogue with the community, allowing for questions and understanding. His dedication to demystifying health topics and dispelling myths, especially during the pandemic, underscores his commitment to public health education. As he continues to evolve in his field, particularly with emerging technologies like AI, Doc Griggs remains a beacon of hope and knowledge for many.
