Can Fam Physician. 1991 Jan;37:72-81.
In a descriptive study using provincial billing profiles, women physicians were found to perform fewer services, see fewer patients, and earn less. Their practices included relatively more female patients and were less likely to include emergency room duty, assists at technical or surgical procedures, visits outside the office, obstetrical care, or after-hours services. Women provided more psychotherapy and counseling, ordered more laboratory tests, and generated higher laboratory costs than the men.
在一项使用省级计费档案的描述性研究中，发现女医生提供的服务较少，看诊的病人较少，收入也较低。她们的行医活动中相对更多的是女性病人，而且不太可能包括急诊值班、技术或手术协助、办公室外的就诊、产科护理或下班后服务。女性提供的心理治疗和咨询更多，开的实验室检查更多，产生的实验室费用也比男性更高。
