In this episode, we celebrate Women in Medicine Month with guest Janet A. Jokela, an internal medicine and infectious disease physician. We dive into the experiences and challenges women have faced across generations in medicine, from pioneers like Elizabeth Blackwell to today’s leaders. Janet shares personal stories of confronting gender bias, discusses the persistent gender pay gap, and explores strategies for achieving true equity in the medical profession.

Janet A. Jokela is an internal medicine and infectious disease physician.

She discusses the KevinMD article, “Celebrating women physicians: Keeping our foot on the gas.”

Our presenting sponsor is DAX Copilot by Microsoft.
