Lesbian doc responds to gay doc's misogyny

Orthopedic surgeon Dr. Diane Litke has responded to a gay Plano doctor’s misogynistic comments on the pay gap between male and female physicians. His comments were originally printed in the Dallas Medical Journal.

“Female physicians do not work as hard and do not see as many patients as male physicians,” Dr. Gary Tigges wrote. “This is because they choose to, or they simply don’t want to be rushed, or they don’t want to work the long hours.”

Tigges implies he stuffs as many patients into his schedule as possible. Litke, a personal friend of mine who has treated lots of other friends of mine, spends as much time as necessary to provide the best care.

Tigges continued his tirade about female doctors, explaining why it’s fair: “Nothing needs to be ‘done’ about this unless female physicians actually want to work harder and put in the hours,” Tigges wrote. “If not, they should be paid less.”
