I have gotten to the stage where I take a more philosophical approach to the issue of physician burnout and job dissatisfaction.

I see it all around me and it’s impossible to miss some of the sobering statistics, just browsing any medical publication or social media feed online.

There’s definitely a very real issue that’s been compounded by changes to healthcare delivery and the nature of the job itself (specifically, having to spend the vast bulk of the day glued to a screen).

But something also tells me that there’s no such thing as a perfect job out there, especially whenever you are working for someone else.
