It’s time to celebrate diversity in surgery with the #ILookLikeASurgeon hashtag.

Inspired by surgery resident Heather Logghe, who says it best: “As women surgeons, whether we are in our first year of training or an emeritus professor, it’s most important that we ourselves believe we ‘look’ like surgeons. Because we do.”

And it’s taken off.

Below is a continuously-updated Storify of this movement.

Spread the word!
