In this compelling episode of Meaningful Medicine, we dive deep into the often-overlooked issue of ableism in medicine. Join us as we sit down with Dr. Meaghan Roy-O'Reilly, a trailblazing physician who became the first person in her neurology residency program at Stanford University to disclose that she is living with a disability. She shares her own lived experience working as a resident with a disability and discusses some of the systemic barriers that exist in medical training. She also offers valuable insights into the steps needed to create a more inclusive and equitable healthcare training environment.
Dr. Roy-O'Reilly's inspiring story is a powerful testament to determination, resilience, and the unwavering belief that doctors with disabilities provide much needed diversity and have a unique toolkit to provide exceptional patient care. Join us for this meaningful and insightful episode.
