A new podcast is coming your way in January of 2025! 

Hosts: Dr. Beth Vukin, MD and Dr. Kara Wada, MD

Mission Statement:

"Lessons We Didn't Learn in Medical School" is a collective of female-identifying physicians living with chronic illness who are out to change the landscape of healthcare.  Join us, Dr. Beth Vukin and Dr. Kara Wada, two physicians navigating our own autoimmune journeys, as we connect with fellow patients and colleagues to bridge the gaps in medical education.  Through candid conversations and insightful storytelling, we delve into core concepts that are often overlooked in medical training.  We celebrate scientific evidence, resilience of the human spirit and the power of community. 

"Lessons We Didn't Learn in Medical School" isn't just a podcast; it's a rallying cry for patients and health professionals alike to reclaim their voices and demand a healthcare system that listens and partners with patients.  Together, we seek to end the stigma and loneliness of illness, foster compassion and connection and offer knowledge with practical advice for those living with and caring for people with chronic illness. 

Target Audience:  

• Women
• Mothers, parents, caretakers/caregivers
• Those with chronic illness of any sort including autoimmune disease, cancer, mental illness, those who do not have a diagnosis for their symptoms
• Physicians, allied health professionals and trainees
