Nadia Jamil, M.D. @NadiaJamilMD
@womeninmedchat A1: part of it is generational- women are just starting to be equal or more in medical school classes. The people at the top are mostly Baby Boomers who had few women in their med school classes. Some specialties are still “boys clubs” like ortho... #WomenInMedicine

@womeninmedchat A1. As more women enter medical school, I see that gap narrowing. Lack of female mentors is a hurdle that is slowly being overcome #WomenInMedicine
Kari Sampsel @KariSampsel

Priya Kantesaria, MD @pskantesaria
@womeninmedchat A1: Perhaps the early reluctance to accept female doctors? I have amazing faculty at my institution who talk about being the first female MD of their specificity at an institution or the early notions they weren't equal to male colleagues. That history is recent! #WomenInMedicine

Apoorve Nayyar @apoorvenayyar
@womeninmedchat A1: Historically, there has been unequal enrollment in medical schools. With better equity at the med school level, hopefully this will translate into equal representation in the workforce as well as leadership across medical specialties #WomenInMedicine
Margaret Stager, MD @DrStager
The gender gap in medicine exists bc medical school was open to essentially only men. Very few woman were granted this privilege. Hence they were marginalized. The men did what they knew best: support and promote other men. #WomenInMedicine
Priyanka V. Chugh, MD, MS @AntiWheatGirl
@ArielaLMarshall Yes! And most men that you ask will say they don’t do this but so much of it is below the surface/microaggressions etc that add up over time #WomenInMedicine

Great responses everybody, now it's time for Q2: What, if any, do you believe are the implications of the gender gap in medical specialties? #WomenInMedicine https://t.co/KNCFIEb21z
Ariela Marshall MD @AMarshallMD
@AntiWheatGirl @DrKanikaMonga @womeninmedchat Yes - woman shows up at kid’s school play: “oh good, she finally showed up, finally puts kid before work” - man shows up: “OMG what an amazing dad who comes even when working so hard full time, poor thing!!” #WomenInMedicine
Jennifer Caputo-Seidler, MD @jennifermcaputo
Why is there a #genderpaygap in medicine? #womeninmedicine
Grace Oliver, MD @GraceOliverMD
A1 I'm not really buying that the pay gap is because fewer women were enrolling in med school; choices still had to be made to pay that minority of graduates less money. I'd pin it more on good ol' patriarchal underpaying of women +/- POC like every other field. #womeninmedicine
Daisy Dulay @Heartdocmom
@womeninmedchat A1: Just as others pointed out, various reasons seems to contribute to the gap such as the acceptance of women in a typical male dominated speciality, practice expectations, home life, and lack of positive experiences for female learners. #WomenInMedicine

Shreya P. Trivedi MD, MHPE @ShreyaTrivediMD
@womeninmedchat 1/ A2. Reading the article and liked some of the implications it draws on #genderequity: Prevalent implications described: 1) women in CC do not feel respected, valued, or secure in their work (e.g., feelings of constantly needing to prove their worth) #WomeninMedicine
Susan Hingle @SusanHingle

Kistein Monkhouse, MPA @KisteinM
@ClinicalPearl @womeninmedchat A1: Agreed! The women rights movement here in the U.S led to women advocating for themselves = becoming professionals in all sectors including the medical industry (post 60's-70's), hence the prevalence of male dominate industries). #WomenInMedicine

A1 historically medicine was a men's club from classroom To residency to practice of medicine. Furthermore the support staff of nurses were historically women. So when women doctors came along it was culturally disruptive. #WomenInMedicine

Dr. Scatterbrain @DocWithADHD
@womeninmedchat A2: I don't want to sound cheap but the MONEY. Specialties that have historically been more female than male (peds, psych, ob/gyn) are lesser paid than specialties with the same level of risk and responsibilities staffed with mostly males. #womeninmedicine
Dr. Carri Glide-Hurst @CGlideHurst

@womeninmedchat A2. In the past, there has been a lack of female mentors in specialties for female students. I want all students to pursue their passion, no matter the specialty. Also, we need more women in leadership roles for new physicians to look up to and gain sponsorship. #WomenInMedicine

RT @iwashyna: Hey #ccc48 before your evening festivities, how about a #WomenInMedicine chat?

@rheum_cat @womeninmedchat Or, worse, taking minutes for a meeting "because I have agile fingers"... #womeninmedicine
Emily Shaffer, DO @DrMissWV
@womeninmedchat A5. One issue which desperately needs reform is the creation of policies which protect women who are victims of assault, domestic violence, and harassment- especially whistleblowers. Forcing us to work in an unsafe/hostile environment reinforces the cycle. #womeninmedicine
Kistein Monkhouse, MPA @KisteinM
RT @ShereesePubHlth: A5 #WomenInMedicine need to support other women in medicine. No more being publicly/socially supportive as a talking point, then privately aloof. Walk the talk. #WomenInMedicine

@womeninmedchat Q3: imho, women are provided task oriented opportunities vs leadership development opportunities unless they articulate that desire explicitly and assertively. Fact is leadership opportunities foster more protected time which leads to academic productivity #WomenInMedicine

RT @ArielaLMarshall: @womeninmedchat A1. Despite gender parity in #medschool - #gendergap exists in some specialties 2/2 lack of female #RoleModels and #leaders and #mentors + #Sponsors - women need to have successful models to want to pursue a specialty!#WomenInMedicine

RT @sheenabhuva: This wk a patient asked how old is PM&R since he had never heard of it. There are ~8000 board certified physiatrists out of ~950,000 active board certified U.S. physicians .#Physiatry is actually > 80 y/o!

@womeninmedchat A3: I committed to a PhD in ortho surg with the expectation of becoming an orthopedic surgeon. Had such a negative experience in the boys club I said "aw hell nah" to that expectation after 1 month. Picked EM, but loved ortho research. #theirloss #doubledoc #womeninmedicine

@rheum_cat @womeninmedchat I hope, but either way assigning a woman/#familymedicine trainee to a basically MUTE role around the discussion table is subtle misogyny at work right heeeere. #womeninmedicine Can't debate if you have to type (while having ADHD too lol)
Kat Ogle MD @DrKittyKat
@womeninmedchat A3: further, women may anticipate their earnest and hard work will be recognized and are less comfortable with praise and seeking audible, visible support and amplification. Publish a paper? Tweet it and ask your tweeps to amplify. Blog post? Same. Award? Same. #WomenInMedicine

RT @JulieSilverMD: @womeninmedchat A2: @womeninmedchat A2: Some of my research is on the lack of inclusion of #WomenInMedicine often at ZERO or near 0 levels. Such as med society awards. In one of our recent studies we showed that 10 med societies had ZERO years of women's prez leadership over the past decade. https://t.co/zXwMU71lkW https://t.co/UJRKWst0Uk

@OlgatheOtter @CGlideHurst @womeninmedchat Honestly some men are MUCH better cooks/parents that I will ever be... But yet when they express those skills, they're being berated for it. Same goes for stereotypes about male trainees in certain specialties (peds, ob/gyn). #womeninmedicine
Kat Ogle MD @DrKittyKat
@womeninmedchat A3: don't wait till you're ready 4 new opportunity. Seek the challenge and find support in mentors #SheForShe & #HeForShe because they may surprise you when you tell them what you need to support your growth! Good mentors have YOUR interests in mind. Use them. #WomenInMedicine
Kez @kezhound
@womeninmedchat A4: fair maternal and paternal leave; demonstration from the chair and senior attendings of how they value their female colleagues; encourage women to pursue leadership positions #scullyeffect #womeninmedicine
