Emily talks to Dr. Suzanne Koven, author of Letter to a Young Female Physician: Notes from a Medical Life. Dr. Koven graduated from medical school in the 80s at a time when there were so few women in her residency program that she had to write up her own maternity leave policy. Her memoir is a testament to how, while some things have changed for the better for women in medical education, much of the culture remains the same.
Dr. Suzanne Koven is a primary care physician and the inaugural Writer in Residence at Massachusetts General Hospital.
Hosted by Emily Silverman.
Produced by Emily Silverman and Adelaide Papazoglou.
Edited and mixed by Jon Oliver.
Recorded in San Francisco by audio engineer Jon Oliver and at Ugly Duck Studios in Brighton by Ian Bouslough.
Original Theme by Yosef Munro. Other music by Blue Dot Sessions.
