Happy National Women Physicians Day to all the amazing female physicians changing the face of medicine and making impact every day 👩🏻⚕️🩺! Thank you for all that you do, in the clinical setting and beyond.
This remains my favorite picture related to women in medicine, because it’s an empowering reminder of how far we’ve come 💪.
Yes - every female physician could likely tell you a story about how they’ve been underestimated, underpaid, or overlooked. We’ve still got a long way to go in terms of change, but when I see the incredible women physicians around me, I know we will get there. 💯
Every year in our physician communities, there are more powerhouse female physicians in leadership positions at academic departments, major corporations, and medical societies, and we see more women making their mark as startup founders, private practice owners, venture capitalists, advisory board members, advocates, politicians, and more.
Here’s to shattering more glass ceilings! 🥂
