how do female surgeon handle their 1 year old baby when they are at hospital
Hey,
Approximately 25% of surgical residents have children, Interestingly, surgical residents with children are more likely to look forward to work and more likely to be happy at work than those without children according to various stats. But became their life more difficult than earlier.
Of course having children during residency is not easy or without problems. Gender plays a large role. Women who have a child during their post graduate 1 – 3 years report they are more likely to feel overwhelmed than female residents who do not have children. Both male and female surgical residents with children are more likely to report that their work hours create family strain. Many female surgeons missed parent-teacher conferences, was often late to their siblings games and fell asleep during family dinners.
We cannot ignore the reality that surgery residents as well as female surgeons struggle to find a work-life balance.
