Trisha Paul is a physician-writer.
After studying English, becoming a physician, and learning to be a pediatrician, she is excited to be training as a pediatric oncologist and palliative care physician. She is currently getting her Masters of Fine Arts in nonfiction writing.
Trisha writes about learning the art and science of practicing medicine and caring for patients. She is passionate about narrative medicine and believes that narrative is an agent for change that can enhance humanism, in medicine and beyond.
Her writing has been published in Academic Medicine, Journal of Graduate Medical Education, Intima: Journal of Narrative Medicine, and more. Her essay Stroppy Sevens was nominated for the 2019 Pushcart Prize.
Alongside medicine, she loves caring for her little free library, dancing barefoot, and anything made of cork.
