Claiming Your Voice and Why Women in Medicine Need a Clear Professional Narrative

Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Neha P. Raukar, M.D., M.S. Women in medicine have made significant strides over the past few decades, yet some still face a variety of challenges and barriers. They commonly encounter inequalities that can affect their professional growth and overall well-being. Common issues include pay disparity, underrepresentation in leadership positions and gender discrimination, just to name a few. Some medical specialties tend to be male-dominated and can be less welcoming to women. As a result, women physicians have higher rates of professional burnout and often experience a less satisfying career. My guest for this podcast is Neha P. Raukar, M.D., M.S., an emergency medicine physician at the Mayo Clinic. The topic we’ll be discussing is “Claiming Your Voice and Why Women in Medicine Need a Clear Professional Narrative”.
