In a high pressure healthcare environment, wellbeing interventions need to show ROI. In this RCT, a $2300 intervention prevents postpartum burnout rise in childbearing trainees, while burnout costs $7600/physician. Worth the investment @AtziriRubioMD@katiakoelliker@MGHSurgery

@AtziriRubioMD presenting 2 yrs of work from RCT @4th_trimester#ASC2026.
A support package (breast pump, smart bassinet, mentor, 24/7 virtual perinatal care) ⬇️ postpartum burnout in pregnant trainees (+47% vs -20%).
W/ this ROI, don’t talk about problems- find solutions!
It’s bittersweet to cross that door for the last time. I’ve had a wonderful learning experience and am grateful to take with me the example and motivation of such outstanding academic surgeons.
