Episode 39: Tara Gaston D.O. Orthopedic Resident
D.O. or Do Not: The Osteopathic Physician's Journey for Premed & Medical Students
Welcome to our 39th episode and the fourth installment in the resident physician series. Today, we have Dr. Tara Gaston, a fifth-year orthopedic resident at Rowan University and Jefferson-Kennedy Hospital. Prior to receiving her DO degree at Rowan University, she obtained a master's in physiology and biophysics and a bachelor's in biology at Gettysburg College. She is married to a previous guest we have had on this podcast, Dr. Ryan Moncman, a neurosurgery resident.
In this episode, Dr. Gaston talks about what made her choose orthopedic surgery and her journey into the challenges faced by female physicians in what is historically perceived as a male-dominated field. We hope you enjoy this episode and our others dedicated to Women’s History Month.
