Title A name given to the resource Systems of Surveillance or Systems of Support? Description An account of the resource <p>Systems of oppression are pervasive, interlocking and inform one another in all fields of life. Similarly, doctors who have more than one marginalized identity also faced greater barriers and discrimination. For example, Diana Cejas, who is a Black and Latina disabled physician has said in an interview:</p> <p><strong>“For a lot of physicians of color, and trainees and medical students, the bar is so high. We have to be perfect. People already expect that you don’t know what you know, they expect you only got in for affirmative action. So you’re having to prove you can do the work, you’re intelligent, you know what you’re saying and doing.” </strong>(Lu, 2021)</p> <p>&nbsp;This shows that even though there are systems in place to support and forward the rights of people who are marginalized such as affirmative action, intersecting marginalized identities can make it extremely difficult to access these systems holistically. Another example of such an instance can be seen in the tweets of Black disabled doctor Justin Bollock who is an Internal Medicine Resident and lives with bi-polar disorder. Talking about the Physician Well Being Committee/Fitness for Duty Process(FFD)which is supposed to be in place to support doctors, they had to say the following about it:</p> Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Lu, W.

Title A name given to the resource Attitudinal barriers Description An account of the resource <p>One of the reasons why disabled medical students and doctors have failed to gain complete access to their environments is attitudinal barriers. These attitudinal barriers either fall under the presumption that doctors cannot be disabled or that if they are asking for accommodations, they are taking advantage of services they do not actually need. This can be seen in the following interviews conducted with disabled doctors:</p> <p><strong>I think attitudinal for me is always the hardest [barrier] to overcome, because it’s the one that you have the least control over, if that makes sense. You can’t really control other people’s unconscious bias.... It’s not just the people running the school. It’s patients. It’s nurses. I had a lot of that. I had a nurse in the emergency room be like, “Why are you playing in that wheelchair?” I was like, “What are you talking about?” She was like, “Whose wheelchair did you take?” and I was like, “It’s mine.” She was like, “But you’re a doctor,” and I was like, “Yes. Yes, and you’re a nurse.” To have a nurse still have that attitude is very frustrating. </strong><strong>— Student discussing unconscious bias among colleagues in the clinic </strong>(Meeks &amp; Jain, 2018)</p> <p>Talking about disabled physician Diana Cejas, Wendy Lu of Huffpost says:<br /><br /><strong>When she asked for dictation software to help her with note-taking, which she often spent hours into the night catching up on, an administrator brushed her off and told her she just needed to work harder. She learned that some of her colleagues — even those who knew what she’d just gone through — were gossiping behind her back and assumed that she just wanted special treatment, even when she had to leave work to get follow-up scans and bloodwork. </strong>(Lu, 2021)</p> Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Wendy Lu, Lisa Meeks, Neera Jain Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Lu, W.
