Abstract/Description
While modern society has taken advancements to fight for the rights of the LGBTQ community, there still exists negative climates that set up discrimination and inequity for LGBTQ members interested in pursuing a medical career. This podcast explores examples of discrimination and inequities from statistical research and personal encounters of medical professionals. We take you through medical applications, schooling, and residency pursuits to show how LGBTQ members are put at significant disadvantages or forced to limit their choices due to gender/sexual identity.
