The influence of physician gender on practice satisfaction among obstetrician gynecologists
Article Abstract:
A study to investigate the hypothesis that female gender would positively affect job satisfaction among obstetrician gynecologists is presented. Findings reveal that in accommodating the increased proportion of women in obstetrics and gynecology, specialty needs to encourage men who have found a satisfying career to focus on the positive, and to discourage unsubstantial allegations about the negative effects of male gender in developing a satisfying career.
