Recently I had the wonderful, yet solemn opportunity of attending my ninety-three-year-old paternal uncle's funeral. I purposely choose the word "wonderful" to describe this experience because honoring the life of such a remarkable man, surrounded by my family who will continue to love him dearly, was such a special gift. Amid today's increasingly complex world […]
How secondary post-traumatic stress contributes to physician burnout
Physicians have the highest rate of suicide of any profession in the U.S., including military service. We lose about one doctor per day in the U.S. to suicide.
