Dr. Erica Butler, Ph.D. shares how the healthcare system is so broken, it almost cost her an arm after undergoing routine orthopedic surgery.

Dr. Butler is a data and analytics professional who stumbled into the field by earning her doctoral degree in Epidemiology, which, in part, focuses on how to collect and analyze data in real-world settings. She has worked in various industries and enjoys helping organizations develop strategies to use their data, systems, and processes most effectively.

Dr. Butler is originally from East Texas and relocated to Columbus, Ohio, 16 years ago to pursue a graduate degree in Public Health. When she is not working, she loves spending time with her family - including her min pin, Franklin - traveling the world, reading, and being outside as much as possible!
