This has been a topic that we have wanted to highlight for a long time so we are grateful to our guests for coming on the show and giving us an understanding of what is happening, why the numbers are going up, the heart-breaking disparities for black and brown mothers, and the innovative and equitable solutions that are being implemented at ATLANTIC HEALTH OVERLOOK HOSPITAL and across the country.

The first time Ophelia Byers was encouraged to move into a leadership role, she pushed back because she didn't want the responsibility. Thankfully, someone saw her potential and didn't take no for an answer. Today, Ophelia is the Chief Nursing Officer of Overlook Medical Center and the Associate Chief Nurse Executive of Atlantic Health. Ophelia has built up her own "tackle box" of knowledge, tools, and experiences along her leadership journey. Taking what she's learned, she can identify issues and lead teams to find solutions. In this episode, Ophelia discusses what she calls the art and science of leadership. Her top strengths of Strategic, Connectedness, and Restorative feed directly into that belief, allowing her to handle the dichotomies of leadership. Listen to learn how to encourage leaders to take in knowledge from all levels of an organization, learn to see around corners, and create opportunities for others to succeed.

FROM HER BIO: "I have been working in the field of lymphedema therapy since 2001. I have worked in the outpatient department of NYU Rusk Institute, JFK Rehabilitation Center in Edison, NJ, then Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center where I was the lead lymphedema therapist at the Monmouth satellite until 2021. At MSK, I worked with lower extremity, genital, upper extremity and head and neck lymphedema and was able to use a sewing machine to make my own compression garments, especially for the head and neck lymphedema population. In 2021, I transferred to private practice at Omnitherapy in Bloomfield NJ, and recently started working full time at Atlantic Health in a new lymphedema clinic in Clark, NJ. I am both Leduc and Norton trained, assisted in onboarding new lymphedema therapists at MSK, and was an ambassador for the National Lymphedema Conference in Boston, MA."

One of the reasons I never tire of making this podcast is that each conversation brings with it a sense of surprise, an encounter with the unexpected. When I heard about Q Hammouri and the advocacy group they founded, Pride Ortho, I was eager to hear about their efforts to break the taboo of queerness in the straight, male-dominated field of orthopedics and to hear Q's own story. Although we were able to speak at length about that advocacy work and the field of orthopedics, our conversation took us in many other directions, about the nature of identity, the fundamentals of medical thinking, and the ways something as simple as looking and seeing can transform our relationship to the world.Q Hammouri is a pediatric orthopedist and spine surgeon. They are also an artist, immigrant, proud American, Buddhist, Muslim, Arab, and non-binary. They obtained their medical degree at the University of Jordan and immigrated to the US to pursue further medical training. They received their orthopaedic training at Yale, then completed a fellowship in spine surgery at New York University and a fellowship in pediatric orthopaedics at Columbia University. In 2013, they joined Northwell health to found the Pediatric Orthopaedic Department at Staten Island University Hospital, where they practiced until recently, performing the first pediatric spinal surgeries in the New York City borough of Staten Island. Q is the founding president of Pride Ortho, an LGBTQ+ advocacy group in orthopedics, and sits on the Diversity task forces of Pediatric Orthopaedic Society of North America and Scoliosis Research Society. In 2021, they were chosen as an Atlantic Health fellow for Health Equity for their work on LGBTQ access and advocacy. What struck me most about Q's observations and experience is the way their identity, their many identities in fact, are woven into their professional self, and the way they are as a physician and surgeon. I couldn't help but see a connection between their attention to detail, their focus on observation as a surgeon and as a visual artist, and their sensitivity to their own appearance, to the ways their patients may feel perceived, seen or not seen, because of their medical condition, their sexual and gender identity, or both. Far from making them a less focused or engaged professional, Q's different pursuits reinforce their sense of purpose and their grounding in what remains – even in our high tech, hyperspecialized age – medicine's essence: tending to the suffering of other human beings. *** Links:Pride OrthoQ's art: Earl of BushwickThe Whitest Specialty, by Usha Lee McFarling, Stat News, December 13, 2021***Recorded October 18, 2022Music: Mr Smith Art: Jeff Landman
