This book is written for budding physicians who are considering procedural and surgical fields of medicine, but aren't sure if they can (or should) do it. Many women disqualify themselves from certain male-dominated and surgically oriented specialties despite the fact that they are often highly rewarding. This book is about deciding on the right specialty for you. It's about busting myths about women in male-dominated fields and learning to lead. Finally, it's about failure as part of the process and the importance of finding community both within and outside of medicine. Each chapter ends with a reflective "Spill Your Guts" journaling exercise. Join Dr. Hamilton and some of her colleagues as they outline their pathways into these fields of medicine, including some of the stumbling blocks and triumphs they encountered along the way. Contributors include: Theresa Caridi, MD, FSIR, Hannah Clode, Laura Findeiss, MD, FSIR, FAHA, Anna Gasparyan, MD, Anne Gill, MD, Lara Hasan, MD, Aneesa Majid, MD, MBA, FSIR, Natosha Monfore, DO, Lola Oladini, MD, MBA, Arghavan Salles, MD, PhD, Nancy Yen Shipley, MD, Susan Kiernan O'Horo, MD, MPH, and Agnieszka Solberg, MD.
