Social Distancing - unheard of prior to 2020, but now is a way of life especially for us healthcare professionals. Despite pandemic-related challenges SWIM is 100% committed to maintaining and building a supportive circle for local female physicians and hence the birth of The SWIM Podcast! The SWIM Podcast will feature informal interviews with local SWIM members. From how you ended up in this town, what are you excited and passionate about, self-care tips and “SWIM Wisdom” which you wish you had when you were starting out as a new doctor, and more.
