Gender Bias in Urology

Despite growing patient demand, urology has consistently struggled to recruit and retain female urologists. A recent interview in the Urology Times suggests that gender biases may be a driving factor.

Listening actively and developing a retention strategy are some ways that urology practices can help women tackle these unseen barriers!
