I like your statement and the picture. It addresses the problems of perception in a positive way and probably neutralizes a lot of negative feelings.

That's a good pendulum-swing Ashley. This is our website's response to this "problem " (hope it opens)

Our hospital's website lists physicians and includes their gender under

demographic information. I asked why they don't include physician

ethnicity, religious preference, height and weight on the site, but they

told me that "those things have nothing to do with physician

qualifications." Apparently they do not understand the irony. Thankfully

the pendulum has (mostly) swung away from gender-based patient

preference in our area. Now most patients seem to be searching for

clinical excellence. Good luck.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
