This summer, the ACMS is officially launching the Women in Healthcare Committee, co-chaired by Anuradha Anand, MD, and Tiffany Dumont, DO. To commemorate this exciting new addition to our lineup of member engagement opportunities, we invite all ACMS members and their non-member colleagues to attend a casual networking event on National Women’s Day, August 9th, 2023!
The ACMS Women in Healthcare Committee is pleased to welcome honored guest speaker Margaret Larkins-Pettigrew, MD, MEd, MPPM, FACOG. Dr. Larkins-Pettigrew is an international diversity, inclusion and equity expert, healthcare strategist and maternal/infant health care equity advocate. She is the Senior Vice President and Enterprise Chief Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Officer for Allegheny Health Network/Highmark Health. As a practicing physician, she cares for women in her general OB/GYN practice, with a special interest in providing care for women living with HIV and those in under-resourced communities. Her passion for health equity and building programs that improve outcomes for women, people of color, vulnerable and marginalized communities has been a common thread throughout her highly respected career and commitment to service.
Join us at Longue Vue Club for a night of networking on the patio overlooking the city, while enjoying appetizers and a complimentary bar. In addition to our honored guest speaker, attendees will have the opportunity to connect with colleagues and learn more about the goals of the new Women in Healthcare Committee. You are not obligated to join, but your feedback on the programming and initiatives you wish to see from this group is greatly appreciated.
If you are interested in learning more about serving on this new committee, please contact Nadine Popovich (npopovich@acms.org). We look forward to welcoming members and non-members for an evening of camaraderie on August 9th.
Honored Guest
Margaret
