"Most medical students in the United States are graduating from medical school having had experiences that they report as being either belittling or harassing," said lead author Dr. Erica Frank, an associate professor and vice chairwoman of the Emory University School of Medicine in Atlanta.

In fact, 42 percent of seniors said they had been harassed by other students, residents, preclinical professors, clinical professors or attending physicians, or patients. Eighty-four percent said they had been belittled, and 40 percent said they had been harassed and belittled.
