Dr. Katherine Bakke discusses her narrative “But I love my big hair! An Essay on the Discouragement and Difficulty of Becoming a Women Surgeon!” She shares her journey from creative work into surgical training and when things all came together for her. Even after this, she resisted the idea of becoming a surgeon because her values were not always validated by the surgical profession. During this interview, we will dive deeper into how this dichotomy sharpened her choices and the impact it had on her and her colleagues.
