But she also isn't afraid to showcase other areas of her life including days out at the pool and time spent with her husband who she wed around two years ago.

"Pretty women can be more than pretty faces....we can also be badass doctors," she writes.

"When someone tells me you're too pretty to be a real doctor," she says. "Well thank you... pretty ambitious.

"Pretty hard-working and pretty determined to achieve my dreams."

She also revealed how she was happy to pose in a bikini, despite being a doctor.

"Remember that article that was posted about women not being professional or able to do their jobs as physicians because they listed photos in a bikini....yeah me neither," she laughed.

"Proud to be a female physician more than ever these days!! 👩🏼‍⚕️ ."

Her viewpoints were echoed by other professions with one pal saying: "I so agree! A female friend commented to me the other day how in my profession (law), I better watch what photos I post since it could hurt my image yet she drools when our male friends go shirtless."

Another added: "Can I be like you when I grow up?!"

But many others were critical of her deeming her arrogant.

"Is this literally all she posts are conceited TikToks of her making cutsie faces at the camera and pointing at her life accomplishments lol."

Another added: "Don’t you think it’s ok to be proud AND humble?"
