Anjali Taneja

Fellow

Anjali is a family physician and DJ who is passionate about reimagining healthcare and healing in the US. She is the Executive Director of Casa de Salud — a culturally humble and anti-racist nonprofit model of care that integrates primary care, queer/transgender care, harm reduction, addictions treatment, acupuncture, reiki, massage, and indigenous based healing circles for uninsured, immigrant, and other marginalized communities in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The clinic trains 30 health apprentices a year — primarily young students of color interested in healing/healthcare fields — and prepares them for careers in health/healing. Anjali is board certified in family medicine, in addiction medicine, and also works in the emergency room of a small rural hospital in the Navajo Nation. From 2007-2013, she curated CureThis — an online community space for discussion around new models of care.
