To honor Women's History Month CBS 2 is taking a look at women in medicine.
Dr. Carrie Nelson of Advocate Aurora Health is passionate about treating the whole patient. She's spent her career working to improve patient care.She graduated from Rush University Medical School in family medicine in the 1980's, and says while her class was around 30% female.
Fast forward to today. Situations have improved for physicians, but Nelson says that's not always true for patients and care has had to change. She says one patient's story proves the need. When a sign went up in the office that said"talk to us if you're ever concerned you may not have healthy food available to you," a patient came to Nelson and said"I have a problem."And hospital philosphy is changing.
