It is wonderful to see such a strong cohort of physicians and nurses elected to Congress. This expertise will be invaluable to improving health outcomes in the US and globally. Cc @CUGHnews @PublicHealth
Yesterday was a big win for America’s health. The following doctors and nurses won their elections:
Senate
• Dr. Annie Andrews (MD, pediatrician) - South Carolina
• Dr. Abdul El-Sayed (MD, epidemiologist & former Detroit health director) - Michigan
Governor
• Dr. Amy Acton (MD, MPH, former Ohio health director) - won Ohio
House
• Dr. Richard Pan (MD, MPH, pediatrician) - California
• Dr. Adam Hamawy (MD, surgeon) - New Jersey
• Dr. John Cowan (MD, neurosurgeon) - Georgia
• Mitchell Berman (RN, ER nurse) - Wisconsin
• Kristina Knickerbocker (APRN-CNP, neuro-oncology nurse practitioner & Air Force veteran) - Ohio
Plus reelected nurses Lauren Underwood (IL) and Sheri Biggs (SC), and several physician incumbents who held their seats.
Health care professionals just got a much louder voice in our country. 🩺 🇺🇸
