"I reach out to female medical students to come shadow me in clinic and in my operating room. The job description of hip and knee replacement surgery can be pretty physical, which is why I think women can be discouraged from going into it. But I’m 5’8’’. I’m not a large individual. And I want female medical students to see that if I can do the surgery, they can do the surgery, too."
