The Only One in the Room: Dr. Devi Nair

When people ask what it is like to be a woman in interventional electrophysiology, I tell them the truth: for most of my career, I was the only one at the table. Not the only woman in the EP lab; nurses, techs, and coordinators have always been the backbone of every EP lab I have worked in, but the only woman standing in lead, with the catheters in her hands. That has changed. It has not changed enough. Cardiology remains one of the least gender-balanced fields in medicine, and the procedural subspecialties EP, interventional, structural are the narrowest part of that funnel. We are not short on talented women entering medical school. We lose them somewhere between the classroom and the lab. I have thought a lot about where that loss happens, and I no longer believe it is mostly about ability or even about ambition. It is about permission, the quiet, cumulative sense of whether a room expects you to be in it. The room does not hand you authority ... Early on, I learned that bei...

From Tampa to Timeless Japan: A Journey Through Culture, Speed, and Soul Easter 2026

Reena Kavilaveettil MD Traveling with Family and Friends from Tampa Brown Bears I. Arrival — Tokyo in Full Bloom Our journey began in Tampa, with excitement packed tighter than our suitcases. As the plane lifted into the early morning sky on Easter Day, we left behind the familiar warmth of home, heading toward a land where tradition and technology coexist in perfect harmony — Tokyo. Tokyo welcomed us not just with its dazzling lights, but with a rare gift: cherry blossoms in full bloom. Walking through Ueno Park, we found ourselves beneath a canopy of soft pink sakura petals. The air felt lighter, almost magical, as families gathered, laughter echoed, and petals fell gently like nature's own confetti. We felt incredibly fortunate to witness the fleeting beauty of sakura — Japan's most poetic season. II. Temples, Palaces, and the Soul of the City Our Tokyo tour began at the serene Meiji Shrine, nestled within a beautifully forested area that honors Emperor Meiji — th...

AKMG WOMEN IN MEDICINE SERIES 2026

  Women in Medicine — A Story of Many  I am a woman. A woman in medicine. An immigrant mother in medicine. Sometimes I wonder what my life might have been like if I had been born as a man. Would the responsibilities have been different? Would the struggles have been different? Would the road I travelled have been a little easier? I will never know. But I have come to believe that equality does not necessarily mean that men and women must be the same. I believe in something closer to gender neutrality - the freedom to be different without being considered less. I know there are things my husband does for our family that I struggle to do. I cannot change the oil in the car. I cannot change a tire. I have tried to understand investments and finances, but somehow my brain refuses to cooperate. I have enormous respect for women who can do those things. A women can. A woman is no less capable than a man. But I am also comfortable admitting that there are things I cannot do. Perhaps ...
