dc.description.notesDiscusses the background to, and findings of, part of a series of research studies aimed at exploring NESB women’s perceptions and experiences of intimate medical examinations and sexually inappropriate conduct by medical practitioners. The study, entitled ‘Project Hippocrates’, consisted of a survey of medical practitioners and patients, focus groups with patients, follow-up interviews with focus group participants and interviews with general practitioners. This article reports on the methodology, findings and conclusions drawn from focus group sessions held with eight Spanish- and eight Vietnamese-speaking women. Draws attention to the debate surrounding how sexually inappropriate behaviour by health professionals is to be defined and some of the issues raised by the nature and context of women’s interaction with the medical profession. Highlights various factors which often heighten NESB women’s vulnerability to sexually inappropriate medical practices. Advocates for greater recognition of the power imbalances of doctor-patient relationships and the need for more culturally sensitive health services for women.en
