    Horrific. Aussie report finds female surgeons coerced to give sexual favors (@theage). Am I naive to think: not here?http://bit.ly/1JUHUUG

        @Atul_Gawande @theage If there is a hierarchy, there will be abuse if it is left unchecked. @RACSurgeons has taken up the challenge.

        @Atul_Gawande @theage. Female surgeons in Australia <10% of total. In US, 20% so hopefully obnoxious sexual harassment less tolerated.

        @Atul_Gawande Absolutely shocking. But unfortunately fits into a much broader ecosystem of abuse in medicine. So much needs to change.
