This day celebrates the birthday of Elizabeth Blackwell, who is the first woman to receive a medical degree in the US in 1849 and a trailblazer in the field of medicine. We owe a debt of gratitude not only to Dr. Blackwell but to the many women that have followed and contributed so much to medicine and to their patients. While 35% of US physicians are women,\u00a0 we are fortunate that Cooper employs 44% women physicians.<\/p>\n<p>The Women in Medicine group has organized a list of nominations of the many accomplished women physicians who work with us. This complete list is attached below.\u00a0 Of course, this only represents a fraction of the wonderful and talented women we work with every day. We are all very lucky to work with these colleagues and acknowledge how much they bring to Cooper each and every day.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"8uOxG4oSkr\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.cooperhealth.org\/news\/2021\/02\/celebrating-national-women-physicians-day-2021-at-cooper\/\">Celebrating National Women Physicians Day 2021 at Cooper<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"&#8220;Celebrating National Women Physicians Day 2021 at Cooper&#8221; &#8212; Inside Cooper\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.cooperhealth.org\/news\/2021\/02\/celebrating-national-women-physicians-day-2021-at-cooper\/embed\/#?secret=8uOxG4oSkr\" data-secret=\"8uOxG4oSkr\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today is National Women Physicians Day!
