Presenter Bio
Dr. Gigi Osler is an assistant professor in the Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery at the University of Manitoba, and a dedicated advocate for equity and diversity, physician wellness, global health, and virtual care.
She is Chair of the Canadian Medical Forum, President-Elect of the Federation of Medical Women of Canada, 2nd Vice President-Elect of the Canadian Society of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, and the Regional Secretary for North America and the Caribbean, International Federation of ORL Societies.
As the 2018-2019 Canadian Medical Association (CMA) President, Dr. Osler had a profound impact in raising the profile of equity and diversity, both within the profession and the CMA itself. She led the CMA’s involvement in several equity and diversity initiatives, which led to the development of the CMA’s first-ever policy on equity and diversity in medicine. More generally, as the self-described first female surgeon and woman of colour to serve as CMA President, she has been an inspiration to medical women across Canada.
In her leadership roles, she has fostered engagement with physicians and allied health care professionals across Canada and the world. She has been awarded the Doctors Manitoba Health or Safety Promotion Award, a University of Manitoba Distinguished Alumni Award, and the Association of Faculties of Medicine of Canada May Cohen Equity, Diversity, and Gender Award. She has been named to The Medical Post’s 2021 Power List, one of Canada’s 2019 Top 100 Most Powerful Women by the Women’s Executive Network, a CMA Physician Changemaker, and to the Canadian Women in Global Health List.
This was the Keynote Presentation at the Canadian Physiotherapy Association (CPA) Congress in 2021.
