Only one day out of office! There is a way to keep yourself and your practice healthy—learn how in less than 48 hours at Women in Pediatrics: Empower Express 2024. We’ll have opening remarks in the afternoon on Friday, October 25 and we’ll close around noon on Sunday, October 27.

Our hotel is located less than an hour from both Chicago O’Hare and Chicago Midway International Airports. Happy Hour will be held at the hotel on Friday and Girl’s Night Out will be within walking distance on Saturday. The conference sessions will be held at the hotel, so give yourself time to make it to breakfast, but there will be no need for transport once you arrive.

Thanks for being a loyal member of the Women in Pediatrics community! This event is shorter and is located in an easy-to-access mainland US city so reaching us will be a breeze. This is the fly-in version of the event you know and love.

This event is uniquely designed to address the needs of female pediatricians. Our guest list, speakers, and agenda have all been curated with the female pediatrician, and only the female pediatrician, in mind. That said, all are welcome. If you’d like to bring your practice administrator or a friend with a different medical specialty, we’ll be happy to have them.

We’ve included prices for both single and double-occupancy attendees. If you choose double occupancy, just let us know who your roommate will be in the post-purchase survey. We can also assign you a roommate if you prefer.

Women in Pediatrics: Empower Express 2024 was created to help female pediatricians take back their time and prioritize self-care with plenary sessions, activities, and mealtimes packed with tools and tactics to help you overcome the perceived lack of time that often hinders your success. You’ll return home agreeing with this previous attendee: “This is the second Women in Pediatrics retreat I have attended, and each time I’ve been reminded why I chose medicine and specifically pediatrics. The road has been long and hard and feels defeating some days. This event is a way to become reinvigorated to do important and meaningful work.”

Absolutely! We’ve built connection into every part of the event to ensure you leave feeling seen and supported like a previous attendee who shared, “I think WIP is amazing and feels like a group that has my back whether they know me personally or not which is powerful.” Women in Pediatrics is where you find your people.

If you live locally and won't require a hotel, you can book a conference-only registration here.
