Who we are & our vision

Our mission

Women in Medicine® (WIM) educates and empowers women in healthcare, alongside male allies, to drive meaningful change in our healthcare systems.

Through evidence-based research and the advancement of innovative strategies, we work to create a healthcare system that provides exceptional care to all and foster a healthcare environment where excellence is at the forefront.


Our Vision

Our vision is to positively disrupt and transform the healthcare system and champion for change to create a world where women in medicine are empowered, supported, and equipped to thrive and lead.

We envision a connected community of healthcare professionals who actively collaborate to address and dismantle the barriers to exceptional medical care.

Since our inception, WIM has evolved from a small volunteer network of dedicated women and men into a nationally recognized grassroots organization representing women in healthcare with a powerful collective voice.

  • We foster a supportive community where women connect, learn, and work together to address systemic inequities and advocate for fair treatment across the medical profession.

  • We are dedicated to advocating for a healthcare landscape where every individual, regardless of gender, has the opportunity to succeed and lead.
