Changing the way we train gynecologic surgeons.

Abstract:

:To ensure the integrity of gynecologic surgical practices and patient safety, changes need to be made in the training of gynecologic surgeons, both in residency and continuing surgical education. Although society demands competency in the training and continuing education of airline pilots, little is done in comparison to ensure competency in the training and continuing education of gynecologic surgeons. Both professions rely on safe performance to protect the well-being of individuals. It is now time for medical and surgical education to move from the shadows of its "trust me" attitude into the light of a "test me and prove me" criterion.
