Women in gastroenterology are underrepresented all over the world and in South Asia, the numbers are even fewer. Women doctors in South Asia have their unique set of problems that they have to deal with. They are trained well and are keen to publish but are not considered good enough. They do not get the same opportunities as their male colleagues. There is more expectation from women doctors to look after their families and children. We can correct this discrepancy by giving more opportunities, arranging flexible training, deserving promotions, leadership roles, equal pay, and research mentors for women doctors in gastroenterology in South Asia, and educating our society to treat women doctors, at par with men.

在全球范围内,从事胃肠病学领域工作的女性人数较少,而在南亚地区,这一数字更是少之又少。南亚的女医生面临着一系列独特的问题需要应对。她们接受了良好的培训,渴望发表论文,但却不被认为足够优秀。她们无法获得与男同事相同的机会。人们对女医生照顾家庭和孩子的期望更高。我们可以通过提供更多机会、安排灵活的培训、给予应得的晋升、领导职位、同等薪酬以及为南亚从事胃肠病学的女医生提供研究导师,并教育我们的社会平等对待女医生和男医生,来纠正这种差异。
