There are many stories to tell - about women, medicine, surgery and cancer. This is my personal account.

I chose my specialty specifically to be part of a women majority surgical field. In this issue of @NIBjournal I shared my personal experience as a woman surgeon, caring (nearly exclusively) for women patients, surrounded by women colleagues and staff.

💬 Viewpoint: Despite women facing higher rates of chronic illness and unique gynecological disorders, federal health leaders have insufficiently prioritized women's health in chronic disease research.

To improve patient care, we need to more consistently consider sex and gender when researching conditions that impact women and men. This includes disaggregating and reporting data based on sex. @JanineClaytonMD @AMWADoctors @SexGenderHealth @KUHospital @nih_niam

FINALLY watched @1001cuts. Proud of @temkins for highlighting so much of what we all know and experience. So much still unsaid. So many nuances to discrimination. 💯 agree with how this will not stand for the next generation. Nope. No ma'am. Proud to lead an amazing fellowship.

The Ontario Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists has been vocal in identifying gender bias & the Double Discrimination experienced by OB-GYN & other surgical specialties. @WomenOMA @OntariosDoctors @ONThealth @OSOG @chaihof

Patients with female-specific cancers are at a systemic disadvantage as well due to structural sexism. See our #ASCO23 ed session. https://t.co/MLMCM5DVD1
