"I am a woman surgeon who predominantly cares for women with breast disease. It is an honor and a privilege to treat my patients each and every day. As a female physician, I certainly feel connected to those I see during some of their darkest days, for I try and put myself in their shoes to understand the fear, anxiety and uncertainty they are experiencing. On National Women Physicians Day, I am proud to be part of the female medical community who serve those in need and am grateful for this recognition." - Jennifer Steiman, MD, breast surgical oncologist at upmchillmancancercenter and UPMC Magee-Womens Hospital Today we honor the strides made by generations of trailblazing female physicians. UPMC celebrates the courage of Elizabeth Blackwell and the accomplishments of female physicians everywhere. We thank you for bringing female voices to medicine. In honor of #NationalWomenPhysiciansDay, we’re proud to feature outstanding female physicians from throughout our system.
