About Dr. Sloan
Sonya M. Sloan, M.D., known as #OrthoDoc, has established herself as a force to be reckoned with in the male-dominated field of orthopedic surgery. At Baylor College of Medicine she made history as the first African-American female intern in general surgery and the first African-American female orthopedic surgery resident.
Her work reaches far beyond the hospital walls. She founded ME&WE, Inc. and SLOAN STEM+Arts, started the philanthropic effort behind a medical clinic in Haiti, and is one of the founders of National Black Women Physicians Day.
“Nothing in life comes easy but it does come with the intention of bringing us to our destiny.”
