In our first episode of Season 2, Dr. Sonali Paul draws attention to the postpartum nuances of using a sperm donor. She addresses the harmful assumptions underlying heteronormative family structures dominant in medicine in her article. From the Shaadi.com profile to her family’s absence at her wedding, Dr. Paul overcomes the trials of being out to her traditional South Asian family. Her meditations on the ever-changing landscape of medicine call for an increase of resources and community available to LGBTQ+ patients, students, and providers. Dr. Sonali Paul is a transplant hepatologist at the University of Chicago Medical Center. Interns Aaliya and Sofia lead our reflection for this episode!
