Hospitals in Wales 'didn't want to know' about the needs of disabled staff, says Dr Georgie Budd.
That would require a "perspective change in society" she said.
Georgie spent months in hospital recovering from her accident, an experience she said gives her more empathy for her patients."Having more doctors that have gone through poor health experiences, chronic illness, disability is important to widening doctors' understanding of what their patients are going through.
Comments like that could be "hard", Georgie admitted, but said they made her more determined to "normalise" disability. "Only when shortlisting is complete will a candidate's self-declaration [of a disability] be visible, alerting the appointing manager that reasonable adjustments may be required," said Lisa Gostling, from Hywel Dda health board.
