When Raquel Bono was a child, she told her father that she wanted to work at the hospital so she could spend all day with him. When she started listening to jobs she could do at the hospital, her father asked, “Why don’t want you want to be a doctor?” She replied, “Dad, I did not know that girls could be doctors.”
That conversation led to a 30-year career as a trauma surgeon, to become a vice admiral in the Navy and executive who eventually ran the Defense Health Agency, a $50 billion healthcare enterprise. Dr. Bono, who also led Washington State’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic, joins us today to talk about breaking the model, women in healthcare and leadership in this volatile world.
