Last week’s blue tsunami carried a lot of white coats: At least seven newly elected Democrats have medical degrees or nursing careers. Pediatrician Annie Andrews of South Carolina scored one of the most shocking Senate victories of election night for Democrats, while Abdul El-Sayed (who earned a medical degree before working in public health) won the all-important Michigan Senate race. In the House, Democrats will soon welcome pediatrician Richard Pan of California, emergency room physician Amish Shah of Arizona, surgeon Adam Hamawy of New Jersey, emergency nurse Mitchell Berman of Wisconsin, and oncology nurse practitioner Kristina Knickerbocker of Ohio. Like many Democrats, these candidates campaigned on lowering costs, expanding health coverage, and confronting the drugmakers and healthcare corporations that they accuse of putting profits ahead of patients.
