2)I know men leave medicine, too. Truth: I know more women who have left.
They are not leaving medicine bc they don't want to work hard.
I repeat: Not one of these women have left medicine bc they are not hard workers.
Many have left because they do not feel valued.👇
Medicine: I am concerned. I coach/speak/lead tens of thousands of women physicians.
In the last 3 yrs, I am seeing so many leaders, experts, talented clinicians,& innovators leave medicine.
After decades of training - they leave.
What is most shocking: they tried to stay.👇

Physician wellness happens when physicians are actively involved in creating healthier workplaces. It cannot come from an outsider. Physicians must be leaders of the solutions. #physicianwellness
