Is burnout too broad a word for physician distress? A look at how choice, capability, connection, and contribution may better explain what physicians have lost.

For physicians, allowing medicine to move down the list can feel strangely like failure. Perhaps that says something about the profession we were trained to enter.

Healthcare tells physicians to become more resilient. But what if bouncing back is the wrong goal? One physician argues for empathy, mastery, humility, and growth instead.

Medicine can become so intertwined with identity that physicians forget who they are outside it. What parts of your life belong entirely to you?
Have something to say? We’d love to feature it.
