Sexual harassment, sexual assault and rape have been referred to as surgery’s open secret.
There is an untold story of women being fondled inside their scrubs, of male surgeons wiping their brow on their breasts and men rubbing erections against female staff. Some have been offered career opportunities for sex.
The analysis - by the University of Exeter, the University of Surrey and the Working Party on Sexual Misconduct in Surgery - has been shared exclusively with BBC News.
Nearly two-thirds of women surgeons that responded to the researchers said they had been the target of sexual harassment and a third had been sexually assaulted by colleagues in the past five years.
Women say they fear reporting incidents will damage their careers and they lack confidence the NHS will take action.
what kind of sad pathetic waste of life do you have to be to GET HORNY WHILE SOMEONE ELSE IS CUTTING SOMEONE UP AND SEXUALLY ASSAULT SAID SKILLED SURGEON
Have you met/partied with medical students who are doing their residencies? I have, and my opinion of doctors has radically changed since then.
University living rolls on and on.
Pretty much, I saw something similar with PhD students. It’s like they are infantilized adults from being in school for so long.
Oh dear. Elaborate?
28 year olds acting like 18 year olds.
Even worse, to unleash an untrained surgeon out to the world in exchange for sex.
Maybe they are turned on by how smart and skilled the surgeon is? Lol
