  • Dr. Elisha Yaghmai discusses how the environment of medical education in both medical schools he attended - including within the hospital and clinical settings - were environments ripe for abusive behavior to students. He believes this type of abusive dynamic plays into the reason we have so many of both bad doctors and unkind doctors in America.

    A profession that preaches teamwork, yet, carries a culture of perpetuate beat-down and power scaling towards future doctors. Obviously, the more experienced are going to know more than incoming students. Quite sad.

      It’s quite different now and better. But yes some older attendings still have this sentiment

    Doctors who are trained to be snide and dismissive of each other are even better at being snide and dismissive of patients.

    Healthcare as a whole is filled with a Lord of the Flies type of nature, everyone just wants to feel superior to the other, when patient care, ethics, and empathy should be top priority.

    4th year medical student here. There are some improvements in hours and explicit discriminatory comments, but the culture of pimping, humiliation, and hierarchy is very much still present.

    Don’t forget the abuse med students undergo from the nurses, also, who are mainly women. Most med students are treated like b#tche$ since their career(life) depends on it, and so are forced to go through this hazing.

      Nursing school has its share of abuse as well.

    Sounds like this doctor had a rough go and needs a place to vent. Fair enough but might not be the most accurate representation of the current state of medical training for those who are looking

      If you think this is rough... 😂😂 people should know what they are getting into. Being a medical student/resident is BRUTAL and will make you contemplate unaliving yourself at least once throughout the journey, if not more.

      This is in no way an isolated occurrence. This is the culture of "professional" programs in medicine and nursing. Hazing and rituals abound throughout the hierarchies. It was never just going to school and studying. It was always this.

      I never realized docs experienced such incivility in training, like in nursing but also with its own distinct themes. 🥺
