The wonderful @NeenaModi1 speaking up for the 150,000 women doctors in the country. Her talk @RoySocMed on Leadership is starting now!
“Know your own mind. Follow that path and take the next turn” Authenticity is key in today’s presentations

🏥 I went to discharge a toddler from the hospital and found a medical student in the room carefully bandaging her owl stuffy who had a “broken wing”. He left the toddler clear “stuffy care instructions” and some stickers.

The future of medicine is bright ☀️
