Mission: To promote education and awareness of women’s health from an osteopathic perspective and to provide medical students with opportunities to gain hands on experience with certain aspects of the specialty.

Our Chapter: Throughout the year, this club organizes lectures with guest speakers who share their experiences with various topics pertaining to women’s health, breast cancer, how to get into residency programs, and other educational and informative topics. We also participate in a great ultrasound and laparoscopic workshop as well as getting involved with a breast cancer walk. We like to be involved in fundraising also, and some of our main projects involve the fistula campaign and the Vagina Monologues.
