I Am a Medical Feminist

One of my fellow speakers at TEDxNHS2019 was the amazing Dr Sarah Hillman. We both graduated medical school in the same year, and have both become GPs, but Sarah has taken a more academic route. I was blown away by the power of what she has to say and believe every doctor and medical student should engage with this and consider the implications for what we think we know about medicine. We are currently doing a significant disservice to half of our population and we need to take what she is saying very seriously.

This is really worthy of your time and energy!
