Many junior doctors experience bullying
Many junior doctors in the United Kingdom experience bullying during
training. Of 594 doctors surveyed, 37% reported being bullied in the
past year. Black and Asian doctors were more likely to be bullied
than white doctors, and women were more likely to report bullying
than men. Quine (p
878) says that although these findings should be interpreted
cautiously, the disturbingly high levels of bullying and mistreatment
during training are part of many junior doctors' perceptions and
experiences.
