It's that time of the year again, the annual feature of Modern Medicarebringing to light noteworthy achievements of women in healthcare.

These are women who are doing exemplary work and contributingimmensely to the field of health care. Keeping up with the tradition,

this year too we have tried to find women who are silent achievers

in their respective domains, be it a paediatric orthopaedic surgeonor a successful pathologist. Going through difficult decisions in lifethey have emerged as winners. As you read through these storiesyou will discover that all of them have their unique success story.

The common thread that binds them together is the fact that allof them have made sacrifices to reach the position that they are

in today. These stories also reflect a paradigm shift in the society'soutlook towards women and emancipation of women themselves.
