Mission
To connect and support women physicians in a way that allows them to thrive in all aspects of their lives: professional and personal.
Vision
To create a connected force of women physicians that will not only advocate for one another professionally, but also support each other in balancing our many other roles. We will be a sisterhood that will band together in times of adversity, celebrate each other’s successes and support charitable causes we are passionate about.
This will be our beacon
Our place to belong,
To connect,
To circle back to.

Together, we are better.
Let us push each other to persevere and to live, love and heal to our full potential.
