The original version of the article unfortunately contained a few errors.
In the Abstract, under ‘Summary’, the term ‘Sexual preferences’ should read as ‘Sexual orientation’ in the sentence, “Social media has emerged as a democratizer…”. The corrected sentence is given below,
“Social media has emerged as a democratizer, giving voice to all surgeons regardless of gender identification, race, nationality, ethnicity, religious beliefs, sexual orientation, or other demographic factors.”
Under the header “Time for a New Normal for Underrepresented Surgeons”, the term ‘Sexual preferences’ should read as ‘Sexual orientation’ in the sentence, “Surgery is a field in which talent must prevail…”. The corrected sentence is given below,
“Surgery is a field in which talent must prevail over considerations of gender, sexual orientation, religious preferences, or race.”
