🥼 The First Female Doctor: Breaking Boundaries in Medicine 👩‍🔬

Elizabeth Blackwell’s dream was to become a doctor in an era when women were not allowed in medical schools.
Despite facing constant rejection, she persisted and was accepted to Geneva Medical College in New York in 1847.
She was admitted as a joke—the male students didn’t think she’d last.
But Elizabeth proved them wrong, graduating first in her class and becoming the first woman to earn a medical degree in the United States.
Her journey wasn’t easy—she faced discrimination, skepticism, and had to fight for every opportunity.
Elizabeth went on to open a medical practice and later a medical school for women, paving the way for generations of female doctors.
Her determination not only broke barriers in medicine but also in women’s rights, showing that women could excel in any field.
Elizabeth Blackwell’s legacy is a reminder that perseverance can break even the hardest of boundaries.
