Abstract
Men and women receive unequal pay for equal work, a gap of approximately 20% to 30% in income across most professions, including medicine and surgery. Inequality also exists in academic advancement, with far fewer women holding positions as full professors, program directors, or department heads. Women may be discouraged from pursuing surgery as a career, and they face unique challenges related to gender expectations in their role as surgeons. Steps to identifying gender bias and correcting the pay gap are important to ensure the growth and vitality of the specialty.
