4. Other Concerns
33
Professor Carole Black Head of The Royal College of Physicians As medicine becomes increasingly perceived as the work of women, it will be accordingly devalued: Look at nurses and teachers The Independent, Aug 2, 2004
34
"The women admitted to medical school do well, they work well and they graduate well. The distinctions go to the women. But then, as the years go on, they start to make choices to balance their family and their lifestyle" "In medicine, they choose to go into the specialties of dermatology, geriatrics and palliative care - not cardiology and gastroenterology where they are going to be required to work long hours"
35
"If you can't make it possible for women to participate in everything - doing research, attending committees, influencing the Department of Health - the profession will lose its influence The issue is sensitive and I could raise it only because Im a woman
36
How I See It
37
Dermatology should be Separated from Andrology
38
The Best Students Are Women + Their Choice Is Dermatology = The Scientific Standard of Dermatologists Will Rise
39
If Women Dermatologists Became A Sweeping Majority, Treating Their Male Colleagues Will Be Or Like That ? Like This ?
