 | Heather Logghe, MD @LoggheMD RT @DrHowardLiu: The 1st step towards #equity is disseminating national data on the #GenderPayGap. The 2nd step is getting local data.

| Jordan Becker, MD, SM @Jordanschmordan @kmbrownmd @womeninmedchat A1: Racism in medicine to me is inequality in accessing quality health care. Of course, there's also Dr->Pt, Pt->Dr, and Dr->Dr stereotypes/beliefs that interfere with those working relationships. #womeninmedicine |
| Susan Hingle @SusanHingle @lauren_kuwik @kmbrownmd @womeninmedchat A1 Racism is patients making racist comments to and about their doctor. Racism is patients refusing to be cared for by a doctor because of her/his race. #WomenInMedicine |

| Mage of Micturition and Vaccination💉🧙🏾♀️ @catjacarol01 @kmbrownmd @womeninmedchat A1: Discrimination based upon power I'm balance. Hiring, promotions and tenure for docs. Limited access to diagnosis and treatment to patients and their families. #womeninmedicine |
| New England Nurse @coffeeNCalibers @kmbrownmd @womeninmedchat A1:Racism in medicine could be anything from a passing remark to an open action. It’s up to us to speak up. Ive seen pts mistake a black female fellow as a cleaning lady, & I’ve had patients refuse one of our best nurses because she is from China & has an accent. #womeninmedicine |
| Roxana Daneshjou MD/PhD @RoxanaDaneshjou A1) Racism is an important healthcare issues because it kills in many ways. There is the literal killing happening regularly where people are targeted based on race. There is the insidious killing due to healthcare disparities, the effects of emotional trauma. #womeninmedicine https://t.co/Ji99SuuO7f |

| Joannie Yeh MD (she/her) @BetaMomma @kmbrownmd @womeninmedchat A1: There’s a few ways to look at it. One is when medical staff perceive the patient with racial bias... implicit or not. (Eg Serena Williams & this article). Another is when med staff &/or patients perceive med staff member with bias. #womeninmedicine https://t.co/dBfxDTD6b0 |

| Susan Hingle @SusanHingle @kmbrownmd @womeninmedchat A1 Racism in Medicine is unequal access to care by patients because of zip code #WomenInMedicine |
| Big Win Slot Siteleri. @slotsiteleri23 A1. Important to note that not only can we be racist (or prejudiced) against patients, but patients can and will be racist/prejudiced against us. Its difficult as a WOC physician to deal with racism when it comes from a patient. #womeninmedicine |
| Deanna Behrens, MD (she/her) @DeannaMarie208 @kmbrownmd @womeninmedchat It can be physician to physician, physician to patient, patient to physician, interactions with RNs, RTs, other support staff. It is the chronic degradation of people based on biases, can be subtle or overt, can be intentional or not. It dehumanizes people. #WomenInMedicine |
| Eve Bloomgarden MD 🟦 🎗️ @evebmd @kmbrownmd @womeninmedchat A1 : patients who cancel their appointment bc of someone’s last name or switch doctors bc of an accent. Including someone’s race when presenting on rounds. Thinking of a diagnosis based on someone’s race or name. #womeninmedicine |

| Katie Sharkey MD PhD (she/her) @katie_sharkey @kmbrownmd @womeninmedchat A1: patients and colleagues being treated as "less than," spot judgments and assumptions made about diagnoses and competence, added stressors impacting chronic health conditions and exacerbating burnout of healthcare workers #WomenInMedicine |

| Barby Ingle Official @BarbyIngle A1. Racism in med care is when a provider discounts ur subjective info because of ur race, leading to patients being afraid to speak up because of a cultural belief. Gender bias is also an issue n good medical care. Sadly, I have seen providers w biases in both #WomenInMedicine https://t.co/quwuzl6oYe |

| Roxana Daneshjou MD/PhD @RoxanaDaneshjou A1. I've witnessed patients who are undocumented (or even documented but still fearful) coming to care late due to that fear. This delay of care costs lives. And this fear has been a more recent development. Hospitals must be safe spaces. #womeninmedicine https://t.co/Ji99SuuO7f |

| Mage of Micturition and Vaccination💉🧙🏾♀️ @catjacarol01 @kmbrownmd @womeninmedchat A1: Example, as a med student we were told BW had more PID because they were more promiscuous. I was one of two BW on the class. I could feel every set of eyes on me. No acknowledgement of health disparities and access to care. #WomenInMedicine |

| Gerri Mattson @gerrimattson16 @kmbrownmd @womeninmedchat A1 #WomeninMedicine It is hard to believe it when other health care professionals seem to think it is okay to make inappropriate remarks and think colleagues are not “like those other people” of that race cause u r a physician! |

| Luu Ireland, MD (She/Her/Hers) @lirelandMD @kmbrownmd @WomenInMedicine A2: Because in 2018, black women are dying 3-4x more frequently during and after pregnancy than white women.

| Dr. Lillian Erdahl MD @LillianErdahlMD RT @kmbrownmd: A2. We will also recruit less doctors of color, and medicine will continue to be of one color and class. Patients want there healthcare team to be as diverse as them. #womeninmedicine |

| Roxana Daneshjou MD/PhD @RoxanaDaneshjou @DeannaMarie208 @kmbrownmd @womeninmedchat I know there are worse examples. But often patients ask me, "Where are you from?"

| Lauren Kuwik MD @LaurenKuwikMD @kmbrownmd @womeninmedchat A3-this is a Tough one. If it’s a colleague then I correct in a neutral way. If it’s a patient it is hard.

| Big Win Slot Siteleri. @slotsiteleri23 A3. It depends. The other night a patient’s husband called me “girl” when I was telling him his wife did not have a CVA. Even though I was pissed, I ended up letting it go. Further escalating a very tense situation wasn’t going to help anyone. #womeninmedicine |
| Maria Mora Pinzon, MD, MS, FACPM @MoraPinzonMD #WomenInMedicine A3: nothing... i have never feel in a position to call out #racism, and say things like "What do you mean?" when other are affected. I have just put my head down when I have been the target of #microagressions. :( |

| Jasmine R Marcelin, MD, FACP, FIDSA 🦠 @DrJRMarcelin @kmbrownmd @womeninmedchat @WomenInMedicine A4. 1. Call it like it is. Say "That's Racist". Don't allow people to whitesplain racist comments. If people feel uncomfortable with you calling it out, it's because they should. #womeninmedicine #blackwomeninmedicine |
| Allison Larson, MD @AllisonLarsonMD @kmbrownmd @womeninmedchat @WomenInMedicine A4. I think it’s critical to discuss, practice, and model these types of conversations with colleagues, residents, and students. The more we recognize and address micro and macroaggressions, the more we will eliminate #WomenInMedicine |
| VThornley, MD, Neurologist, Sarasota @VThornleyMD @kmbrownmd @WomenInMedicine A4 #womeninmedicine we can take it down by not tolerating it, not putting our blinders on and sticking up for our patients, colleagues and ourselves for those who have been affected |
| Jordan Becker, MD, SM @Jordanschmordan @kmbrownmd @WomenInMedicine A4: We need to shine the light on it. When it happens in front of us, we need to call it out, whether it's directed to a patient, Dr, or other hospital worker. And once we reach hiring-level positions, make sure we intentionally create diverse teams. #womeninmedicine |
| Mohammad F. Shaikh, MD @shaikh_mf RT @BetaMomma: @kmbrownmd @WomenInMedicine A2: @kmbrownmd @WomenInMedicine A2: First and foremost, affects patient outcomes. If we are to first do no harm, we must keep addressing racism. This is not a problem that will go away easily. Solutions to equality & equity must be intentional & inclusive. #womeninmedicine https://t.co/JBMJ6FeYxf https://t.co/KIqDlGWQiW |
| Shreya P. Trivedi MD, MHPE @ShreyaTrivediMD @kmbrownmd @WomenInMedicine A4. Training staff will take more than #implicitbias training. It really means having people role-play, do OSCEs, have good role models, etc. so staff can be comfortable being making others #uncomfortable. A lot of us have trouble with #confrontation. #womeninmedicine |
| Joannie Yeh MD (she/her) @BetaMomma RT @SusanHingle: @kmbrownmd @womeninmedchat We must address with the recognition that we ALL have bias #WomenInMedicine https://t.co/4Wgxxq3PlB |
| Margaret Stager, MD @DrStager A4: it's imperative that we not only address #racism on a personal basis but also to continue to review and reflect on the many studies which demonstrate racial disparities, esp in repro health. #womeninmedicine |

| Maria Mora Pinzon, MD, MS, FACPM @MoraPinzonMD RT @virenkaul: A4: A4: Be kind, be positive. Feel racism can not be eradicated by being angry, cuz no one is right in a fight. Educate, communicate, introspect at an individual level. At a system level: strong unrelenting leadership is key IMO #womeninmedicine |
| Maria Mora Pinzon, MD, MS, FACPM @MoraPinzonMD RT @catjacarol01: @kmbrownmd @womeninmedchat A3: @kmbrownmd @womeninmedchat A3: I don't argue or give them the satisfaction of asking more than once, nor getting upset. Bigots get off on the power differential. I am not going to hand that over. If they wish to leave AMA there's nothing I can do except give them a list of names to try. #WomenInMedicine |

| Jasmine R Marcelin, MD, FACP, FIDSA 🦠 @DrJRMarcelin @kmbrownmd @womeninmedchat @WomenInMedicine 2. Tell them WHY it's racist. Some people don't even know the implications of what they are saying, and may even appreciate the discussion and enlightenment 3.

| Lauren Kuwik MD @LaurenKuwikMD RT @peoplearewild: @kmbrownmd @WomenInMedicine A4: @kmbrownmd @WomenInMedicine A4: We have to call it out in real time in a respectful way. And we have to aware of our own prejudices and bias in order to keep ourselves accountable. Introspection goes a heck of a long way. #womeninmedicine |

| Roxana Daneshjou MD/PhD @RoxanaDaneshjou It has to start with ourselves. I’ve done implicit bias training, and I have learned from reflecting on my own actions and thoughts.

| Dr. Lillian Erdahl MD @LillianErdahlMD RT @DrJRMarcelin: @kmbrownmd @womeninmedchat A3. My response to racism in medicine has evolved over the yrs. I'm more comfortable now with saying to people "that's racist", advocating for POC whenever I can. We can't keep treating racism like Voldemort and being afraid to say its name. #womeninmedicine #blackwomeninmedicine |
| VThornley, MD, Neurologist, Sarasota @VThornleyMD A4 #womeninmedicine My brother, a wise rehab doc, once told me he rotated with an African-American surgery resident who said underneath our skin we all bleed the same red blood. That was deep. I’ll never forget that. |

| Shikha Jain MD, FACP @ShikhaJainMD @kmbrownmd @womeninmedchat Sometimes I try to instill comedy. Whenever someone says my English is good I respond “thanks so is yours.” #womeninmedicine |
| Maria Mora Pinzon, MD, MS, FACPM @MoraPinzonMD RT @coffeeNCalibers: @kmbrownmd @womeninmedchat A3: @kmbrownmd @womeninmedchat A3: Of course during my rant I can’t forget about HCP racism too, it’s not just the pts. Addressing comments made by staff might be uncomfortable at first but making it known that you won’t tolerate it is important. See example below I’m out of characters lol #womeninmedicine |
| Carrie Sims, MD PhD☮️ @carriesims20 RT @FaaBoulos: A1: A1: Racism in medicine is thinking I'm the janitor or asking me to clarify my ethnicity before I can get your history or examine you. #truestory #EthnicallyAmbiguousSurgeon #womeninmedicine |
| Maria Mora Pinzon, MD, MS, FACPM @MoraPinzonMD RT @VThornleyMD: A4 #womeninmedicine My brother, a wise rehab doc, once told me he rotated with an African-American surgery resident who said underneath our skin we all bleed the same red blood. That was deep. I’ll never forget that. |
| Michael Sinha @DrSinhaEsq RT @brainyloma: @kmbrownmd @WomenInMedicine A4 Recruit, retain and support diverse deans/faculty/staff/attendings/fellows/residents/medical students. Demand more than “diversity positions” for POC in academia. Make sure your admissions committees have URMs. #womeninmedicine |

 | Kristen Jacklin @Kristen_Jacklin RT @djillk1: A2 - #racism and #colonialism are determinants of health in Canada -- lead to poorer health outcomes, especially for Indigenous people & their communities #healthequity #socialjustice #womeninmedicine |
| Maria Mora Pinzon, MD, MS, FACPM @MoraPinzonMD RT @DrJRMarcelin: Agreed. Diversity is great, but I don't want to be your Token, I want to be included as your equal. I want to actually SIT at the table, not just be invited to stand in the corner and be quiet. #womeninmedicine #blackwomeninmedicine https://t.co/BGL7KaoyKm |

| Jasmine R Marcelin, MD, FACP, FIDSA 🦠 @DrJRMarcelin RT @BetaMomma: @kmbrownmd @WomenInMedicine A2: @kmbrownmd @WomenInMedicine A2: First and foremost, affects patient outcomes. If we are to first do no harm, we must keep addressing racism. This is not a problem that will go away easily. Solutions to equality & equity must be intentional & inclusive. #womeninmedicine https://t.co/JBMJ6FeYxf https://t.co/KIqDlGWQiW |
| Carrie Sims, MD PhD☮️ @carriesims20 RT @JulieSilverMD: @kmbrownmd @WomenInMedicine Physicians often don't receive training in implicit bias, and they (we) unwittingly cause problems. Education is an important first step, but it certainly is not the only one. This is a very interesting report on the topic. #WomenInMedicine https://t.co/8zhrmGX8Rx |
 | Jessi Gold MD MS @drjessigold I hate when I am in line and then the doors open for something and a bunch of white dudes rush to the front of the line and people just let them do it. See: airports. Trains. #womeninmedicine #checkyourpriviledge |
