A recent report in the UK has shown that at least 1 in 3 female surgeons are being sexually harassed, assaulted, and in some cases, raped by male colleagues in hospitals.

Now Australian doctors are speaking up about their own experiences. 

In this episode of The Quicky, we take a look at the systemic failures leaving our female doctors vulnerable and what can be done to protect them.
