Drexel University College of Medicine

Drexel University College of Medicine’s Women’s Health Education Program (WHEP) is a program in the Department of Medicine and one of six original National Centers of Excellence in Women’s Health. This designation, awarded by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office of Women’s Health, indicates our commitment to advocating for women’s health issues in medicine.

Our mission is to innovate, educate, advocate and integrate by preparing tomorrow’s physicians for excellence in health care delivery to all women across the lifespan. 

Our efforts are directed toward long and short term change, with the hope that the future physicians we train will view women’s health as a fundamental element of medical care that is more than reproductive health. Our goal is to train medical students to be physicians who treat patients holistically and are active listeners who integrate new knowledge with clinical care.

Students are invited to learn about our courses and programs.                                           

Faculty and physicians can read about WHEP's mission, philosophy and goals.

Members of the community are invited to explore becoming a WHEP partner.
