Physicians are not burned out because medicine is hard.
Medicine has always been hard. That is not new.
We are burned out because the things making it harder have nothing to do with medicine.
Fix the system. Keep the physicians.
9/ San Diego, California 🇺🇸
The textbook American mild climate. Temps mostly sit between 14°C (Jan) and 22°C (Aug). It never freezes. 344 days a year above 16°C, only ~25 days above 27°C
Borderline-arid, sunny, ocean-cooled: the definition of inoffensive weather
This is the one many assume will top the list.
San Diego is the benchmark people reach for when they say "perfect weather." And it nearly is. It just isn't quite Las Palmas.
But there are challenges:
- It's expensive: one of the priciest housing markets in the US
- Immigration is the real wall unless you're American or have a visa path
- "May Gray / June Gloom" brings weeks of coastal overcast
- Wildfire smoke can intrude in late summer
The gold standard for North America.
