In this episode, Yotakahron has a conversation with the trail-blazing Dr. Donna May Kimmaliarjduk, the first Inuk cardiac surgeon in Canada and a cardiac surgery fellow at The Cleveland Clinic. They discuss Dr. K's journey throughout medicine, being an Indigenous woman in medicine, and lessons learned along the way. Yotakahron was asked to write this feature which highlighted and celebrated Dr. K during International Women's Day 2020. As we go through a shift with the Podcast, we were able to pull this episode from our records and edit it for you all to listen (almost a full year later). We hope you enjoy!
