David A. Farcy, MD FAAEM FCCMIn the past several months, I have been traveling and lecturing to students, residents, and attendings, at both community hospitals and at academic programs. While speaking with people on my travels, I often am asked “Why should I join AAEM?” “What do I get for my money?” “I am content, I am happy where I am!” But in the same sentence, I also hear, “What are you doing about wellness?” “What are you doing to support women in emergency medicine?” etc. As I respond to these questions, filling them in on the great work the Academy is already doing through our Wellness and Women in EM Committees, and many other initiatives, this is usually met with, “Wow, really?! You’re not marketing yourself well, we had no idea.”
