Accompanied my husband to his sports med appt today. Couldn’t help but notice the sheer lack of diversity in the waiting room. Access to sports is a privilege in itself, and access to healthcare that can support your goals is an even greater privilege. #DiversityInHealthcare

@NdidiUnaka Thank you for the kind words, Ndidi! And for all you do for us! 🥰

[Faizeen Zafar, M.D. @FaizeenZafar]

And just like that Peds residency comes to a close!👩🏽‍🎓

Forever grateful to @CincyPedsRes! A place where l learned to say “Yes, I can,” and “No, I’m not sure,” with equal confidence and poise. 🙌🏽

Y’all @FuturePedsRes, this is the place to train! 💯

[Faizeen Zafar, M.D. @FaizeenZafar]

@CincyMedPeds @MariaSiowMD @nmpra Congratulations! This is amazing news!

[Faizeen Zafar, M.D. @FaizeenZafar]

@NdidiUnaka Thank you, Ndidi! Those words mean a lot! ☺️

[Faizeen Zafar, M.D. @FaizeenZafar]

When this first happened, I felt small and humiliated, and didn’t talk about it as much as I should have. Now, I am glad I did.

🙏🏽 to @AAPSOPT for highlighting the #AAPI experience in medicine and for giving us the platform to share our thoughts/voice! #DiversityandInclusion

[AAP Peds Trainees @AAPSOPT]

We are also highlighting #AAPIvoicesinpeds during #AAPIHM. Dr Zafar (@FaizeenZafar) share's her experience.

[Faizeen Zafar, M.D. @FaizeenZafar]

@STangGirdwood @AAPSOPT @CincyPedsRes @CincyChildrens I hope so too! Such incidents need to be brought to the forefront, otherwise we will continue to facilitate hate and aggression.

[Faizeen Zafar, M.D. @FaizeenZafar]

@STangGirdwood @AAPSOPT @CincyPedsRes @CincyChildrens Thank you for the kind words, @STangGirdwood! Honestly, when I saw that video where you shared some of your own experiences, it definitely motivated me to speak up as well!

[Faizeen Zafar, M.D. @FaizeenZafar]

@STangGirdwood Thank you for sharing, Sonya. Such powerful words!

214,535. My father added to that number last night.
He served this county for 34 years and was still going to serve for two more years.
He was a fighter pilot in the Indian Air Force, spirit he exhibited till the very last day and moment.
I’m whatever I’m today because of him

@STangGirdwood @CincyChildrens Congratulations! This is great!

Sending all the love to our IU colleagues. Dr. Chaniece Williams was a peds chief resident who died from childbirth. What an incredible loss.

In the US, Black women have 3x the maternal mortality than white women.

🤬 WOW, SO OFFENSIVE: I am seriously disappointed in @wearfigs - a company that profits by making flattering & comfortable healthcare apparel (esp. for women!) - to publish an image so demeaning to #WomenInMedine and DO physicians.

SERIOUS REAL❓: *WHO @wearfigs APPROVED THIS?*

[Faizeen Zafar, M.D. @FaizeenZafar]
