@dw.science: Researchers in Canada looked at records from over a million patients, and came to a surprising conclusion: long term, the treating surgeon’s gender made a difference in patient recovery. Women were the clear winners. Reasons for the phenomenon might be that women operate differently, communicate better with patients, or build better relationships with them. Here are the study details: Wallis, Jerath, Aminoltejari et al.: Surgeon Sex and Long-Term Postoperative Outcomes Among Patients Undergoing Common Surgeries, 30.08.2023, JAMA Surg. 2023; 158(11):1185-1194 #sciencetok #science #medicine #surgery #LearnOnTikTok #gender #doctor #female #male #surgeon #genderbias #therapy #hospital #woman #dwscience

👍 :

likely because women are inherently more careful, because they're much more likely to get fired for the same mistake a man didn't get fired for

women’s fine motor skills are better on average, since they develop it at a younger age. that’s also why women usually have a prettier handwriting

I've had my fair share of complications and misdiagnosis from male doctors. Finally got to see a female doctor and she was actually helpful
