Description

Dr. Mukta Panda is an award-winning physician, speaker, and facilitator whose work seeks to transform the heart of patient care and medical education. Her professional roles include Professor of Medicine and the Assistant Dean for Well-Being and Medical Student Education at the University of Tennessee College of Medicine where she serves as a physician, educator, scholar and leader. Mukta also proudly identifies as a mother, grandmother, daughter and friend. Dr. Panda is a facilitator trained with the Center of Courage & Renewal. She facilitates regular retreats for health care professionals and trainees. In 2020, Dr. Panda was named Woman Physician of the Year by the Tennessee Chapter of the American College of Physicians. She recently co-authored—and has led new physicians in reciting—the new Oath to Self-Care and Well-Being, which supplements the Hippocratic Oath. Mukta also helped co-create the LifeBridge program with the Chattanooga-Hamilton County Medical Society and the Medical Foundation of Chattanooga to provide that resource and to encourage physicians to reach out before they are in a crisis.  Her new book Resilient Threads: Weaving Joy and Meaning into Well-Being, launched in February 2020. This book is a narrative on her journey to champion soul-deep, system-wide self-care. By weaving stories of connecting to her patients, students, and colleagues with her own stories of belonging, she models how we can each thrive by creating community and self-awareness. Resilient Threads received the International Silver Nautilus Book Award in 2021.  Her blog, Resilient Reflections, initiated at the start of the COVID lockdown in March of 2020, has served as an ongoing safe space for authentic connections, conversations and co-creating a community of belonging. She is also the author of the reflective and motivational book, Rhythm of Our Hearts, coauthored with her father, a retired surgeon, Dr. Shyam Parashar.  Mukta grew up in India and has studied and practiced in India, London, and Saudi Arabia. To rejuvenate, Mukta likes to take long walks, cook good Indian meals, and plan surprise parties for her loved ones.    Christopher J. L.
