A senior doctor and member of the leadership council of the NSW medical union has been criticised for making controversial comments about women in medicine.
The remarks by Dr Hans Peter Dietz, which were sent on a group email to about 35 people in the union's committee, were made in response to a Sydney Morning Herald article last year about troubling results from a junior doctors survey on workplace culture.
