I am sad to hear that women in Russia are running into a brick wall when it comes to finding gainful employment in a male-dominated field. I find it even more frustrating that some male members on this board seem to agree that such discrimination is acceptable.

The vast majority of obstetricians in the united states are male.
I would be more comfortable with a man in that role than a woman. They are less likely to bring their personal experience(s) and bias to the situation.
