Women in Medicine: Kim Bullock, MD
During September, we proudly feature members of our department for Women in Medicine Month!
Why did you pursue a career in medicine?
I wanted to deeply understand the brain and use that knowledge to relieve suffering.
What is your work focused on?
The use of technology and nonpharmacological interventions in treating mental illness.
What is the most fulfilling part of your work?
Seeing clients return to normal functioning. Getting to work with and learn from teams of people with diverse interests and backgrounds.
What advice would you give yourself when you started in the field, knowing what you know now?
- Just because other people are talking louder and more quickly doesn't mean you don't belong.
- Keep being kind even when others are not.
- In the end, the amount you can contribute is directly correlated to the quality of relationships you have formed.
- You are not stupid, you are just aware of what you don't know which is a sign of intelligence.
- Act ... history favors the bold.
