Dr. Lisa Nee

Fran Spielman interviews Dr. Lisa Nee, a Chicago-born cardiologist and MBA who is preparing to run for mayor to deny Brandon Johnson a second term, arguing voters want a non-insider with real-life experience. She recounts whistleblowing at the Hines VA over unread cardiac tests, facing retaliation while pregnant, and later helping secure bipartisan protections, while also battling breast cancer and returning to health.
