Abby Bales

Dr Bales is a Primary Care General Internist at UW Health and active in the Wisconsin Chapter of the American College of Medicine as the Chair of the Women’s Committee. The WI ACP Women’s Committee has run a friendly Narrative Medicine competition for students, residents, and practicing physicians since 2022.  This is an opportunity for Wisconsin ACP members at any training level to share written works of poetry or prose in a low-stakes way, be published in the electronic Narrative Medicine booklet, and possibly win a nominal prize.  Check the Wisconsin ACP website for links to information about current and past years of Narrative Medicine competition: https://www.acponline.org/about-acp/chapters-regions/united-states/wisconsin-chapter.
