PLME Whole Physician Program - 10/05 International Medical Service, Advocacy and the Whole Physician: A Panel Discussion
Join us on Monday, October 5 at 6pm for this Whole Physician Program event, featuring two prominent Brown physicians as they discuss their respective fields of orthopedics and urogynecology and their involvement in international medical missions and advocacy.
Our upcoming PLME Whole Physician Panel will spotlight two Brown physicians, Dr. Julia Katarincic and Dr. B. Star Hampton, leading surgeons and teachers in their respective fields of orthopedics and gynecology, both of whom incorporate advocacy work and international medical service as integral parts of their careers.
As a specialist in pediatric hand surgery, the current chair of the Department of Orthopedics and chief of Hand Surgery at Brown, Dr. Katarincic has spearheaded numerous medical missions to Honduras, treating children with congenital deformities and other orthopedic conditions. Dr. Hampton, a urogynecologic surgeon and Senior Associate Dean for Medical Education at the Warren Alpert Medical School, serves as the team leader for a group of physicians who travel annually to sub-Saharan Africa to perform obstetric fistula repair and education.
Please join us to hear the surgeons discuss how these valuable contributions to global health inform their practice of medicine and their personal well-being.
