I once caught one Dr knacking a nurse in one of the private ward at night when we took a patient on emergency to one private hospital , the nurse can be somebody's wife. It wasn't a good sight at all. This things are common during night duties, that's when they knack themselves Hospitals become Night Clubs. Either Dr knack nurse, or patients or patient relative knack nurse
.. Discipline really has to be instituted.

Meel:
No matter the profession, your personality comes first. We have scenarios in which a father defile his daughter, uncle raping 2 year old niece. All these trait are inborn, so no matter there profession they will be a pervert.

In Medicine, we have code of conduct and ethics, for a Dr to do anything with a woman, a nurse or orderly that is a woman must be present. So if a Dr want to check on you, you can ask for a lady to be present if you're not comfortable with him alone. (KNow your right pls).

Gbam!

no self respecting doctor who spent 6- 7 years in medical school will indulge in the act
NO WAY

Later talk about harassment from Nurses too.
Don't be biased.
Do not think that the handsome doctors don't get harassed by female doctors/nurses too.

Amarabae:
Doctors and Nurses are professionals.
Such a thing don't exist in a standard health institution,
Get the crap out of your senses.
And also as professionals, you are licenced ,if you mess up, you lose it.

He watch lot of movies.

Only a stupid medical personnel wil do dat crap.

I wont waste such long years studying to mess up.

All professional have deviants sha, not only medicals

Chipink:


My dear they do, i know u are trying to defend ur profession being a nurse.
Doctors, especially ones who attend to pregnant women do many abominable things.
Nurses many also mingle with doctors

I was in this what's app group last year where we had 2 doctors , u need to hear what they say some doctors do

Very big lie.
Its jus ur imagination.
Abi if they don't examine, how wil they know de problem of the women?
Bc of such comment , many doctors avoid examining women properly , leading to wrong diagnosis

Martinez39:
@Amarabae and Eyeness

I have heard of such allegations but when I asked a doctor friend of mine, she said she has never heard of sexual harassment. She also said that there might be bullying due to the fact that the medical community is hierarchical but it's rare.

Yes there is bullying in medicine but its becoming obsolete. People are now focused on knowing de job well to avoid error.
If u know well, and dress properly, nobody fit bully u

Chipink:


forget it.. ..it only God's grace and self control .
I don't even want to say what those guys told us in that group.. because it's irritating to the ears.

Being a doctor or whatever don't take away what u are.
If pastors can use church to do abominable then doctors are not surprises

They are not doctors but herbalist or roadside quacks

akaahs:
My entrench gf used to tell me how doctors nd other senior colleagues harassed her sexualy as a contact staff, all her mate nd Junior colleagues were promoted as she didn't agree. I don't know whether she finally succumb as her attitude change towards me

She's just feeling hersef for u to value her more. Promotion comes from administrative office not doctors

Chipink:


Not harassing actually, they try their luck to sweet talk the patient to see if they can buy into it.. Not asking for it directly

Sorry say ma guy, ur mind need serious work.
I ll advice you avoid hospital.

Amarabae:

Is that the only professional job If harassment happens in other professional jobs why wouldn't it happen in the health institutions , what about exchange of babies that happens sometimes, what about the sick ones they do abandon abi u wan argue go to general hospitals even private hospitals and see na.... Harassment is everywhere Ma.

The reason why my now Doctor friend changed from Physics to study M&S, he told me to sexually harass young ladies. So he is now a licenced sexual harasser ���,cool. That demon doesn't care whether you are professional or amateur. It simply manifest in people, doctors or dick-heads.

Licensing means almost nothing in Nigeria. In a corrupt country nearly anything goes.

The license will only have weight if there are strict regulation put in place , which at the moment there seem to be none.

There are no guidelines to follow, and some doctors do unnecessary procedures to make ends meet, and many nurses treat patients with non-chalance

Even professionals do not have intra or inter professional harmony, so it's one health care professional against the other. Go to nursing council and see how older nurses and admin staff treat those registering with disdain.

The license is supposed to be a revered documents but at the moment it's just a piece of paper.

My advice to health care professionals is to get that license, and if they ever want to feel what safe and professional care is, to migrate to saner countries where a license really means something.

It's 2019 you wrote this, but in 2022 this is the true state of things.

rex444:
if only they know what it takes to be licensed

De wyne yourself nah. I have medical doctor close friends, not 1, not 2, and we discuss some things that happen within the profession. License or no License, sexual harassment happens there. Let me avoid saying some sensitive things here, just accept it and stop covering up.

She's hyping her profession. Even in advanced countries with top regulations, people have been caught after years of sexual misbehaviour.The difference is they have a good system were offender will be caught in the end, while Nigeria has a crap regulatory system, whose God and Master is quick money making

They will not admit,it is human things.Your profession cannot stop you from been who you are.Some doctors touch women, mostly pregnant woman lustfully in the course of examination.Same with some nurse who lust after guys with big dick.It is human thing and it is bound to happen.

You never see anything

AMGBoss:
It is better to let a female help your wife during childbirth than a male olosh doctor. Lol

not necessarily.

I prefer that.

DrFunmisticGlow:
not necessarily.

Nanatrendy:
It maybe possible in a private institution where the doctor owns the hospital and pay nurses their salaries which can be compared to CEOs and managers harassing their female staff in other sectors but in government hospitals where the government employs both doctors and nurses, no doctor can harass a nurse because there is no pressure to cooperate. In government institutions, nurses answer to the nurse manager the doctor has no power over a nurse any relationship between the two is with consent. There are womanisers in every profession. I work closely with a gynaecologist and most of the conditions he examines will not appeal to any man in his right senses, ladies with foul smelling discharges, bleeding per vagina, cervical cancers, breast lumps and cancers and many other terrible conditions. There is nothing attractive about a sick person to be honest.

i wonder o...

Have I as a female doctor been sexually harassed by a male doctor? The answer is yes. More than once by the same person. In both professional and non- professional setting.

Did I report him? Nope. The drawbacks outweighed the benefits. It didn't help that his father was a notable politician then, and I didn't want to bring trouble to the reputation of family members in my place of work then.

The guy is now in UK, and I'm still here.

But the one thing I know is this. Male doctors are first of all men, before they are doctors. Sexual harassment tells more about the person himself, not the profession.
Male doctor can flirt, but never in a professional setting, and never with a woman who has clearly not given you green light, or consent to do so, verbally or non verbally, in the hospital,or elsewhere.

The profession takes such allegations very seriously.

There was a classmate of mine who allegedly raped a girl on Valentine's day or so in our final year of med school. Two other ladies came out with a similar story. This happened close to the final year exams. The school didn't allow him write the exams, and when he thought he could write the resit, he was booted out by a lecturer on the first resit paper. I doubt they graduated him till today. What I heard was that he was rusticated.

It goes both ways.

Will attempts be made? Yes.

What matters is response to that situation.

I am not an apologist, nor am I defending harassers.

But some of your stories on this forum are reaching. A doctor sleeping with a pregnant woman? Is the woman his patient? I no dey for that one. I comot my hand for that matter

Kittex7:

You mean they sleep with pregnant women

Some of them do.. u know some women become sexualy active when pregnant.
While some ignorant men dont like having sex with their pregnant wife so prefer doing it outside
To keep their baby safe while some find their wife sexually unattractive during pregnancy.
Some sdoctores take the advantage when the women report such issue to them.

Im not saying all doctores sleep with pregnant women.. i said some.
Just like we have bad pastors bad lawyers bad everything.. so doctors are not exmpted

Biko.

Not all of them. Not even some. Can't be up to 1%

Definitely more than 1%

Martinez39:
NB: I am not trying to demonize male doctors, I acknowledge that some female doctors are guilty as well.

Dear female nurses and doctors, have you been oppressed, maltreated or sexual harassed by a male doctor? If yes, share your story and what you did about it. You can also share the story of any friend or person that you know have been in such situation. Other related stories are welcome. Please don't derail this thread.

Edit: due to the irrationality of many people who have commented here, I am compelled to make it clear that this thread wasn't created to downgrade the noble profession and professionals. This thread wasn't motivated by jealous hence all aggression towards me are undue. I have made a simple request in this thread and I expect a gentle and peaceful response -- that's if you are intellectual mature and bright.

Ideally, your topic should be titled: Harrassment From Medical Colleagues.

Your topic (and many like this created by som feminist) seek to pitch one gender against the other. It's counter productive, leaves both sides fighting each other and cause intersex arguments.

DrFunmisticGlow:
less than one.

Lol... many doctors are pervs.

If your wife is pregnant, male doctor can fist Bleep in your presence and nothing wey you go do, all in the name of checking one thing one thing.

If you desire to be seeing what they're seeing, then go study Medicine. It's not too late, you may graduate before you die.

You mentioned a WhatsApp group,when you are told what you want to hear.
Please stop insinuating negatives. Nurses and doctors are professionals who at time of training,are brought up to manage humans in the most precarious and sensitive nature of humans. That they see nudity all the time does not mean they abuse or harrass patients. Please they are trained. Maybe you haven't heard of oathof secrecy, patient's bill of rights and patient confidentiality. These are entities no medical practioneer or in any of the allied profession plays with. Your reputation and license are at stake when questions are raised as regards those, against you.
So, please and please stop talking into what you do not know. Keep mute
