Steps to Make a Difference in Medicine
11 Mar 2026
Dr Ramya Raman reflects on her early career, when she stayed silent, waiting to feel “ready.” Confidence often follows courage — and support from others matters.
Ways to make a difference today:
-
Invite colleagues to speak and back them
-
Name bias when it appears
-
Recommend women for roles before they “tick every box”
-
Sponsor opportunities, not just mentor
-
Ask, “Who’s missing from this room?” and act
Small moments of support can change lives, shift culture, and open doors.
