VOICES UNHEARD

"I now hold the banner high that women and minorities who become surgeons are full of grit and compassion and an ethos of excellence, and I want to hear more about their struggles and celebrate their triumphs.

With great optimism, I see men and women in medicine, those individuals who honor a fiduciary duty to serve their patients, as the best-equipped professionals to regain control of institutional culture in health-care settings, which is moving away from caring for people and closer to commanding, controlling, and profiteering. Our patients deserve better, and we deserve better."
