The story behind the widely-shared photo of a bikini-clad doctor who helped a patient on the brink of death

An image of emergency medical physician Dr. Candice Myhre treating a bloody and injured patient has been widely shared online in the past week. The striking photo is a reenactment of a time when Myhre was surfing and witnessed a woman get hit by a 24-foot boat. She sprang into action to save her. Myhre's photo gained renewed attention in the wake of a controversial study that called female doctors "unprofessional" for wearing bikinis. The study sparked a conversation about sexism in medicine, with doctors posting bikini photos and the tag #MedBikini.
