A profile of Asian-American psychiatrists
Abstract
Of 367 respondents to a survey of Asian-American members of the American Psychiatric Association, fewer than 16% were American-born U.S. medical graduates, and 41% of the patients treated by this sample were minority group members. These findings have important implications for training. Asian psychiatrists have recently emerged as the largest visible multiethnic minority group within American psychiatry, and increased attention to this group may lead to its more appropriate utilization in this country.
