#DearFutureFemaleSurgeons "At the end of the day, what matters is that you’re a great physician. My hope is that we can redefine perception so women are no longer thought of as excellent 'female' surgeons. (1/2) #InternationalWomensDay #BalanceforBetter

It’s International Women’s Day! As the largest surgery residency in the country we are proud to be >60% women. We are kick ass surgeons, amazing doctors, and real true friends. (Thread) #IWD2020 #InternationalWomensDay

We are mamas, dog moms, wives, sisters, and daughters. #IWD2020 #InternationalWomensDay

We take charge and we work hard. We operate together, work on game changing research, run our services, and love our patients. #IWD2020 #InternationalWomensDay

We make work fun. We laugh together, eat together, dress up together and obviously go on much needed coffee runs #IWD2020 #InternationalWomensDay

We explore and go on vacations together! We hike, we run, we lose marathons to Kareem Abdelfattah (just kidding everyone beats him) #IWD2020 #InternationalWomensDay

On #InternationalWomensDay we hope you realize you can be anything you want to be. And if what you want is to be a bad ass, caring surgeon.... then welcome to the family #utsouthwestisbest #IWD2020

Our women in surgery group organized a champagne toast for our graduating female chiefs! We are so thankful for their mentorship and friendship along this journey

These women 🙌🏼 I’m the luckiest to have them as mentors, colleagues, friends. They’ve shaped me into the surgeon I am- they’ve taught me how to be confident, poised, kind, considerate. They’ve shown me what leadership is. I’m going to miss them.
