Background <p>The prevalence of workplace violence in primary care settings internationally is high; however, data about workplace violence in US primary care settings is scant.</p> Objective <p>To describe workplace violence in a US urban academic primary care center.</p> Design <p>Cross-sectional design.</p> Participants <p>Internal medicine resident and attending physicians, who were surveyed between June 2022 and August 2022.</p> Measurements <p>Physician characteristics, direct experiences of workplace violence, witnessed episodes of workplace violence, feelings of safety.</p> Results <p>A total of 93 attending and resident physicians completed the survey with a response rate of 70.5%. Most of the respondents identified as white and female. More than half of the respondents identified themselves as attending physicians. A minority (10.8%) of respondents reported having experienced physical workplace violence within the last 5&#xa0;years and 46.2% reported having experienced verbal workplace violence within the last year. In our sample, white physicians were more likely than non-white physicians to experience physical WPV (OR = 7.16 [95% CI, 0.87–59.2], <i>p</i> = 0.04). Eighty percent of respondents witnessed physical workplace violence in their careers. About half of the respondents witnessed verbal workplace violence at least once in the last year (50.5%), and we found that attending physicians (OR = 4.09 [95% CI, 1.68–9.96], <i>p</i> = 0.002) and white physicians (OR = 3.69 [95% CI, 1.5–9.0], <i>p</i> = 0.003) were more likely to witness verbal WPV in the past year. Forty-two percent of respondents reported feeling unsafe at work at least once a year, with women primary care physicians more likely than males to report feeling unsafe (OR = 2.42 [95% CI, 1.0–5.8], <i>p</i> = 0.04).</p> Limitations <p>Small sample size, single institution, short study period.</p> Conclusion <p>WPV was a commonly witnessed event by primary care physicians, and women physicians were more likely to feel unsafe at work.</p>
