Many doctors face abuse in their workplaces, according to psychiatrist Devina Maya Wadhwa. This can take the form of racial, verbal and physical abuse, and is a growing concern with repercussions for the entire healthcare system. Wadhwa argues that creating safe and supportive environments, implementing anti-abuse policies and educating patients about the pressures faced by doctors could help combat this issue. Without intervention, physicians may leave the profession, leading to a deterioration in patient care.
