Women in Emergency Medicine

Women in EM

In any career or group, it is important for women to support and build each other up. In medicine, this is vital. Fortunately, our program values this greatly. With approximately 50% of our faculty being female providers, we foster and facilitate an environment to see women thrive in Emergency Medicine. We have a specific group for women in emergency medicine and meet monthly to get together to break bread (or tacos), fellowship, and discuss topics concerning all women.

Topics we have recently discussed

• Work life balance
• Building up your fellow female colleagues
• Career success in a man's world
• Mentoring
• Leadership and promotion
• Raising children while in medicine
• Time management
• Preventing burnout
• Daily female challenges
• Fitness while working
• "Things I wish I looked for in my first job out of residency"
• Physician relationships
