We have listeners all over the world, many of whom are Spanish speaking. Did you know we have a sister podcast, Pediatras en Línea? It stands out as one of the only Spanish podcasts focusing on medical education. About two and a half years ago, Pediatras en Línea launched and became a critical resource for pediatricians throughout the U.S. and Latin America. Fast forward to today, their listenership is growing 277% per month and have audience members in 90 countries. In 20 of those countries, Spanish is the official language. About 42.5 million people in the U.S. speak Spanish, but only 6% of physicians identify as Hispanic and just 2% of non-Hispanic physicians are Spanish speaking. Of that 6%, only 2.4% are female.

In this episode of Charting Pediatrics, Carla Torres-Zegarra, MD, host of Pediatras en Línea, joins us to discuss the success of our Spanish podcast and some of the challenges that Spanish-speaking physicians face when relocating to the U.S. Through the stories she explores on her podcast, Dr. Torres-Zegarra hopes to inspire other Spanish-speaking women to become physicians.
Dr. Torres-Zegarra is a pediatric dermatologist at Children’s Hospital Colorado and assistant professor of dermatology and pediatrics at the University of Colorado School of Medicine. Born and raised in Lima, Peru, Dr. Torres-Zegarra moved to the U.S. in 2009 to pursue medical school and has been practicing at Children’s Colorado since 2013.
