Dr. Gold didn't want to be a doctor, but had her options limited by
her family. She trained in medicine before there was awareness
of sexual harassment and when teaching medicine by shaming
was the norm. As hard as that was by itself, she carried the
responsibility of having children in medical school and single
parenting through residency, as well as taking care of her family
members while in training. Through all of this she held on to
her humanity and connection to her patients. She became part
of the fabric of their experience and they became part of the
fabric of her life. She used her intuition and hands to treat and
heal women, and in return they taught her the lessons in life
she needed to grow. This is a compilation of her stories and the
culmination of wisdom she acquired from caring for women.
