Guest host Dana Trampas brings you frontline access from the Women in Medicine Summit, sitting down with Dr. Shikha Jain—triple board-certified oncologist, founder of the Women in Medicine Summit, and a thunderous voice for change.
This isn’t just another healthcare conference. It’s a battle plan for equity, where pioneers like Dr. Jain and speakers including Hillary Phelps tackle medicine’s toughest crises:
•
Why gender disparities still hemorrhage talent from healthcare—and how to suture the wound.
•
The legislative earthquakes shaking patient care (and how doctors must grab the megaphone).
•
Social media’s double-edged scalpel: How physicians can combat misinformation without burning out.
•
The shocking absence of doctors in politics—and why every prescription pad should come with a campaign plan.
New this year: Explosive sessions on negotiation mastery, clinical women’s health breakthroughs, and resilience tactics for an industry on the brink.
