They need to recognize that this situation hits their bottom line.” Read More »  November 7th, 2011 Dr. Linda Brodsky: 5 Major Issues With Physician Compensation Linda Brodsky, MD, a pediatric otolaryngologist and founder of Expediting the Inevitable, shares five issues that specifically deal with physician compensation and why they are hot topics in today’s healthcare climate.

Read Press Relase » June 21, 2011 Why Doctors Should Be Allowed To Work Part-Time While medicine is a rewarding career, it requires an enormous amount of time, energy and effort. Limiting doctor’s work flexibility could be the breaking point where prospective students decide to pursue another career. Sibert appears to blame female physicians for the physician shortage. But as Linda Brodsky, an advocate for equality in medicine, points out, “The work styles and habits she is attributing to women physicians are not unique to this demographic; in fact, research has shown that the desire for work-life balance is generational, not gendered. It is sought by Gen X and Y, and crosses gender lines. The resulting tension in the health care workplace is a function of the lag time between society's evolving demands and health care institutions' willingness and ability to meet them.” Read article »  February 7, 2011 Linda Brodsky, MD quoted in article “New male doctors earned 17% more than female doctors in US in 2008” See quote below Linda Brodsky, the task force’s other co-chair, added: “Many of these young women don’t know that gender discrimination exists. They are lulled into thinking that they are getting flexibility [in hours and working conditions].” Thus they might consciously or otherwise accept a lower salary, she added. Dr Brodsky said that many young women are not good negotiators and that when they do act tough in negotiations this creates a “dissonance to the people who are hiring them,” as they are not then fulfilling the stereotype of a caring provider. The association is creating a web based programme to help its members become better at negotiating.
