In this episode of Our Voices, Our Future, we sit down with Dr. Lauren Beene and Dr. Valerie Fouts-Fowler, two pediatricians whose commitment to patient care, advocacy, and equity in medicine has sparked both recognition and controversy.During this episode we talk about their journeys into pediatrics, their advocacy in reproductive rights and healthcare, their experiences with union organizing at University Hospitals, and the challenges and opportunities that come with standing up for equity in medicine. We also explore what their fight reveals about the structural barriers physicians face when pushing for systemic change.To learn more about their ongoing efforts and ways to support, visit www.concernedUHphysicians.org.You can also reach out to Dr. Beene and Dr. Fouts-Fowler via email: [email protected] can find more information about the work AMWA’s Advocacy Committee has done and how to join their efforts here: https://www.amwa-doc.org/our-work/advocacy/You can find more information about AMWA’s Gender Equity Task Force here: https://www.amwa-doc.org/our-work/initiatives/gender-equity-task-force/ If you are interested in joining the group, reach out to [email protected] you are interested in learning more about the podcast or being featured on an upcoming episode, reach out to our team at [email protected] you are interested in joining the incredible network of women in medicine—join AMWA today at https://www.amwa-doc.org/Thank you for tuning in to Our Voices, Our Future, we will see you next time!
