Accounts of women from Asian ethnic backgrounds about their medical undergraduate experiences in the UK – an interpretative phenomenological study

Discrimination significantly impacts the wellbeing and education of Asian women medical students. These challenges have implications for career progression and contribute to broader inequities in medicine. We recommend medical schools consider including a curriculum to address these concerns as a priority in the early years of the medical degree.

Abstract

Discrimination significantly impacts the wellbeing and education of Asian women medical students. These challenges have implications for career progression and contribute to broader inequities in medicine. We recommend medical schools consider including a curriculum to address these concerns as a priority in the early years of the medical degree.
