Abstract

Women in gastroenterology are underrepresented all over the world and in South Asia, the numbers are even fewer. Women doctors in South Asia have their unique set of problems that they have to deal with. They are trained well and are keen to publish but are not considered good enough. They do not get the same opportunities as their male colleagues. There is more expectation from women doctors to look after their families and children. We can correct this discrepancy by giving more opportunities, arranging flexible training, deserving promotions, leadership roles, equal pay, and research mentors for women doctors in gastroenterology in South Asia, and educating our society to treat women doctors, at par with men.

南亚国家女性胃肠病学之旅：从培训到领导力。

在世界各地，女性在胃肠病领域的代表性不足，而在南亚，这一数字甚至更少。南亚的女医生有一系列独特的问题需要解决。他们受过良好的训练，热衷于出版，但被认为不够好。她们没有得到和男同事一样的机会。女医生对照顾家人和孩子抱有更大的期望。我们可以通过为南亚胃肠病领域的女医生提供更多机会、安排灵活的培训、应得的晋升、领导角色、同工同酬和研究导师，以及教育我们的社会与男性一样对待女医生来纠正这种差异。如何引用这篇文章：Kedia D，Kamani L，Begum MR等。南亚国家女性胃肠病之旅：从培训到领导力。Euroasian J Hepato-Gastroenterol 2023；13（1）：41-43。
