MUSLIM WOMEN IN MEDICINE

Muslim Women in Medicine (MWM) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to bringing together Muslim women who are interested in pursuing a career in medicine. We are the first Muslim women medical association in the DMV! Our goal is to provide a space for students, physicians, and leaders to connect as a community through shared experiences and spiritual growth.

MWM was founded to bring together Muslim women in career as well as in faith. Because many colleges and universities have low Muslim student populations, being a pre-med/pre-health student can be isolating. Similarly, Muslims, especially Muslim women are underrepresented in healthcare. Therefore, MWM aims to foster and empower our Muslim women in the health sector while also making a positive impact on society.
