The Working Party on Sexual Misconduct in Surgery 2/4: The personal accounts in their report, which we also heard during the The Working Party on Sexual Misconduct in Surgery roundtable earlier this year, are truly shocking. There can be no place for any form of sexual harassment, discrimination, misogyny or bullying in the medical profession.
1/4: Thank you to The Working Party on Sexual Misconduct in Surgery for this important report and their wider work to highlight & address the serious issue of sexual misconduct in surgery.
We need statements across the board from associations and then enactment of the recommendations The Working Party on Sexual Misconduct in Surgery have made to tackle this epidemic in surgery
