We welcome Ron M. Aryel, a pediatrician who shares his powerful journey through medical school and residency as a physician with cerebral palsy. Facing discrimination, ableism, and hostility from colleagues and superiors, Ron persevered and built a remarkable career. Join us as we discuss the challenges of navigating medical hierarchies, the importance of empathy, and the need for systemic changes to support physicians with disabilities in the medical field.

Ron M. Aryel is a pediatrician.

He discusses the KevinMD article, "How a doctor with cerebral palsy defied the odds and transformed health care."
