On this episode, we hear from Dr. Adrienne Phllips. She’s a doctor and researcher at RWJ Barnabas Health in New Jersey who specializes in the treatment of blood cancer. Unlike most of the women profiled on Faces of Medicine, she came from a family of doctors. Phillips, who attended Brown University, Columbia and Harvard, says she was drawn to her specialty in part as a way to help Caribbean people who are disproportionately affected by the illnesses she treats. Phillips talks about how her family’s legacy has shaped her and about finding her own path as a third generation physician.
