Drexel University College of Medicine is committed to pioneering programs for women in medicine and science, to advance not only services and access to women's health care, but to support women physicians as leaders in research, the delivery of care and teaching. For students, our efforts are directed toward long- and short-term change, resulting in future physicians that view women's health as a fundamental part of medical care that is more than reproductive health. Our supportive environment and caring faculty role models are the underpinning to our innovative and successful women's health education curriculum.
