It's in 2 HOURS!! Come talk about this important issue with us! Gender Equity Initiative in Global Surgery UCSF Surgery UCSF Diversity WomenSurgeons

Advocacy&dialogue around gender equity in surgery needs to be more inclusive. Please read this piece I wrote with Nensi Ruzgar @UmoyeAlexis and Lotta Velin to bring awareness to more inclusive gender frameworks beyond the binary. bit.ly/geigsinclusivi… #GEIGSHour #GEIGSTransWeek

Surgeons need to be explicitly trained in trans inclusive care. Basics - like using gender-affirming language, pronouns, not misgendering, not dead-naming, etc. seems straightforward but it's really appalling how often providers neglect this completely and don't even care.

Also surgeons and doctors need to stop assuming that trans people aren't "among us." Trans individuals exist in medicine as medical students, trainees and surgeons. So stop assuming they're not in the room. Stop "othering" them and please use inclusive language. They belong here.

Today we honor all the beautiful lives lost in acts of anti-transgender violence. #TDoR2020 is a reminder for all of us that everyday is time for change. Remember them so we can keep supporting&empowering the non-binary community. You won’t be forgotten.

"it blows my mind that the medical profession is supposed to care for people, but at the same time we don't have our house in order." - Eliana E. Kim (she/her) at Gender Equity Initiative in Global Surgery #GEIGSGA2020 👏 Ensuring peer-championship against inequities is so important before we can serve our patients!
