Abstract:
Recent evidence of the occurrence of discrimination, bullying and sexual harassment in surgery and more generally within healthcare has led to widespread discussion about the effects of unacceptable behaviour in surgical education and practice. Despite accumulating evidence of the adverse effects of unacceptable behaviour in clinical practice, not only on health care professionals but on patient care and outcomes, many surgeons and other health care professionals continue to embrace false perceptions about appropriate professional behaviour, interactions and approaches to teaching within surgical departments and more generally within healthcare institutions. This article explores five misperceptions about unacceptable behaviour in surgical education and provides evidence that supports a change in practice.
