Yesterday I posted the 1st of my 2 recent papers with @tarakiran.bsky.social on the #GenderPayGap in medicine. Today I'm thrilled to share the 2nd, done with Dr. Fahima Dossa.
We wanted to see if #WomenInSurgery did different types of work than their male colleagues.

Abstract text for article titled ‘The lady orthopaedic surgeon’. The Bone & Joint Journal.
"Why should the prospect of a female orthopaedic surgeon be something [a patient] had not expected?"
In 2020, 64% of students accepted to a UK medical school were female but only 7% of orthopaedic consultants were female.

I work in a specialty where gentleness, care and superspecialist competence are absolute necessities. These women and so many like them around the world have advanced the care of their communities. I’m amazed to think that there are heroines walking humbly amongst us. #womeninsurgery
The lack of proportionality between workforce representation and payment distribution suggests that barriers extend beyond the pipeline and into the processes by which physicians are selected for consulting, speaking, and other compensated roles. - The American Journal of Surgery, 2025
A study published in @AmJSurgery found that female surgeons consistently receive lower consulting fees than men, even after accounting for experience and specialty.
Systemic change is needed to ensure equitable pay.

Figures from the article showing the increasing numbers of women enrolled in and graduating from cosecsa programs.
🌍 Global collaboration is increasing the number of women surgeons. In sub-Saharan Africa, the number rose from 9% to 27% in a decade, thanks in part to a COSECSA program.
Programs like this break barriers & build equity. 💪

Text reads: "Pregnancy Loss in Surgical Residency. A study of 692 female US surgeons discovered 42% experienced pregnancy loss — a percentage more than double that of the general population. Another study reported more than 70% of female surgeons who experienced miscarriage did not take time off."
Despite women making up 47% of surgical residents and 29% of academic surgeons, 73% have witnessed negative commentary around pregnancy during training.
It’s time to end the silence & support women in medicine through pregnancy and loss.
