"As a woman who is a urologist and even specializes in male reproductive and sexual health, I am often asked by just about everyone about how that limits my ability to treat male patients. I've never seen the fact that I am a woman as a limitation nor viewed it as a disadvantage in how I am able to provide care for my patients. If anything, it has been my biggest asset in providing the best clinical care with patients, bringing enthusiasm in education, and succeeding in the leadership positions that I hold." 
- Dr. Kathleen Hwang, Director of Male Reproductive Health, UPMC Men's Health Center/UPMC Department of Urology

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.
