“Consent, Pelvic Exams, and Medical Training”

When:
26 October 2023 14 h 30 – 17 h 00
Where:
Leacock 232, McGill University

Medical students often learn to perform pelvic exams on anesthetized patients before gynecological surgeries. In some cases, explicit consent is not sought. Why is this happening? How should we respond?

This event will include a screening of the documentary film ‘At Your Cervix’ and a panel discussion, organized by Phoebe Friesen, at McGill University.
