Ep 22 Doctors in Distress

Date: 6/11/24Name of podcast: Dr. PatientEpisode title and number: 22 Doctors in DistressEpisode summary: The majority of doctors today are dissatisfied with the healthcare system. That's not to say that they don't want to be doctors anymore. It's just that they're fed up with the same system that patients are stuck in and fed up with. It's important that doctors and patients see and understand each other more clearly to strengthen their relationships against the onslaught of external forces that are slowly degrading our health system in the US.Guest(s): Dr. Karen LeitnerKey Terms: noneReferences: Dr. Leitner's site: https://www.karenleitnermd.com/NYTimes article (might require a sign-in, sorry): https://www.nytimes.com/2023/06/15/magazine/doctors-moral-crises.htmlPhysicians Foundation report: http://physiciansfoundation.org/wp-content/uploads/PF23_Brochure-Report_Americas-Physicians_V2b-1-2.pdfPodcast website: www.drpatientpodcast.comPodcast email, become a guest: [email protected]
