Sexism in Medicine? Well, Snap My Bra and Call Me Shocked
From The Boston Globe by way of the WSJ Health Care blog:
According to the Globe, Tuli filed her suit in December, a month after the hospital's credentials committee informed her that she would have to undergo a medical evaluation or she would not be permitted to continue practice. As written by the paper, the hospital said concerns had been raised "about [Suli's] behavior and interpersonal communications with patients, colleagues, and employees" and that the hospital had sent other doctors for similar evaluations "to assure optimum patient care and service."
So there are two sides, as usual, to yet another story of alleged sexism among professionals. However, if the accusations against Day are true, they are also an indictment against the hospital and B&W's neurosurgery chief, Peter Black, for failing to rein in some incredibly puerile behavior.
