Parenthood in Residency: Strategies with Dr. Maggie Binder
Parenthood in Residency: Strategies with Dr. Maggie Binder  
Podcast: Promising Young Surgeon
Published On: Tue Sep 10 2024
Description: In this week's episode of Promising Young Surgeon, we explore the challenges and triumphs of parenthood during medical training. As the medical workforce becomes increasingly female, the experience of resident physicians who are also parents is evolving. We dive into a 2022 study from the University of Alberta that examines the residency training experiences of residents with children, highlighting key themes such as role overload, work-life balance, and the positive impacts of parenthood on clinical practice. We are thrilled to welcome Dr. Maggie Binder, a pediatrician who recently completed a fellowship in pediatric hospital medicine. Maggie shares her personal journey, from navigating pregnancy during residency to balancing her career with motherhood. She offers invaluable insights on planning for parenthood in residency, the importance of support systems, and the positive effects of being a parent on her practice as a physician. Resources:https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9135414/pdf/ZMEO_27_2079395.pdfhttps://www.ama-assn.org/medical-residents/medical-resident-wellness/impact-parenthood-residency 00:00 – Cold Open05:54 – Introduction to Maggie Binder, MD14:44 – Maternity Leave Experience30:50 – How Parenthood Affected Maggie’s Career38:00 – How Can Residency Programs Support New Parents?56:40 – Do You Believe in Karma?57:52 – PlugsInteract with the podcast!
