What if women no longer have to make history as the first, the best or the only woman? Women shouldn’t be the exception but one of many.

The pressures inherent in these “commandments” are unrealistic at best, and a recipe for burnout (or worse) at worst. I suggest redefining “master surgeon”, looking beyond the narrow scope of the OR, and capturing a truer spirit of healing and compassion, for patient and doctor.
