Researchers believe that women understand other women’s bodies better, and lack the implicit bias that could be subconsciously formed in male surgeons. implicitbias medicalgaslighting hystericalwomen
Have you ever gone to see your male physician for an issue, or ailment, and felt your concerns were not taken seriously? You are not alone. JAMA Surgery recently published a revealing study surrounding gender biases and post-operative outcomes. The study, which originated from a control group in Ontario, defined these outcomes basesd on complications, readmissions, and death during the first 30-days.
Ironically, both women and men had better outcomes after surgery with women at the helm, another study showed. Why is this? For decades, The Women’s Health Research Organization at Yale University , has worked with government officials on policies designed to affect change for women’s health and gender equity. To date, WHRY leads breakthrough research in cardiovascular health, Alzheimer's, obstetrics and more. The organization attributes the lack of women included in clinical trials as one of the reasons women are not receiving the necessary treatment they need. WHRY is determined to change these outcomes.
Thankfully, organizations like the Association of Women Surgeons fight tirelessly for the equity of other women surgeons. The organization advocates for representation on medical boards, at institutions, and provides mentorship for women in the surgical field.
