  • Women and Gender bias in Medicine (Part 1) – Breaking In, Breaking Barriers
    May 14 2025

    Medicine was never designed for women—but that hasn’t stopped us from showing up and excelling. Yet, from pre-med to residency, female physicians face unique challenges:

    🚧 Gender bias in medical school admissions
    📉 Underrepresentation in leadership & specialties
    💰 Pay gaps that start before we even earn our first paycheck

    💬 Why do female physicians have to work twice as hard to be seen as equal?

    In this episode, we explore the systemic barriers women face in the medical field and how they shape the careers—and mental health—of future doctors.

    💡 It’s time to level the playing field.
