Webinar: Supporting Career Development for Women in GI

Two out of five GI fellows are women, but women comprise less than 18 percent of practicing gastroenterologists and the number of women in leadership positions is even lower. Join the DHPA Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee for a conversation with Dr. Aja McCutchen and Dr. Michelle Clermont of Atlanta Gastroenterology Associates, and Dr. Tonya Adams of Gastro Health Fairfax in Virginia.

Dr. McCutchen and Dr. Clermont discuss the experiences, challenges and opportunities faced by early career-women physicians in private practice gastroenterology.

Dr. Adams provides an overview of the Gastro Health Women’s Network, which was founded in 2021 and is aimed at recruiting more women physicians into the Gastro Health platform, providing mentorship, social opportunities for networking, and encouraging and supporting women to have leadership positions within the organization.
