1001 Cuts: Being A Woman Surgeon in 2025
This episode is for women and men surgeons. It is important that all of us see the biases that still occur every day in (and out) of the operating room. It is literally 1001 Cuts. Asking for things multiple times, defer from the senior women surgeon to the young man medical student, having the equipment not fit. Needing a male colleague to explain what we are doing or get us what we need. 1001 Cuts.
We think that maybe things have changed, but not as much as they could have. We are still fighting the fight.
On this episode of The Intentional Surgeon, Dr. Sarah Tempkin, surgeon and film maker shares her story of leaving surgery and making this extraordinary film. We can all do better. We can all see the woman behind the mask. We can all change this culture.
