Scrubs to Suits: Leadership & Advocacy Conference

Capt Pei-Ying Kobres, MD

As an active-duty Air Force physician, I had no idea the opportunities and vast resources that were available to me. It was as simple as Dr. Fontenette asking “Do you want to go to Washington D.C.?” I was so nervous about going to the Nation’s Capital and speaking with lawmakers. I didn’t even know what I was going to wear. It turns out, that’s what the first two days of the conference are for. The conference brings in experts from all backgrounds - doctors, lawyers, data analysts, and Hill staffers, and gave attendees from medical students to attendings a platform to present their research.
