Career reflections on improving burnout, practice efficiency, physician well-being and patient care
What are the best conferences on physician health? What is joy in medicine? Why are doctors burning out? What do doctors waste the most time on? Why doctors retire? Our guest is Christine Sinsky, MD, vice president of professional satisfaction at the American Medical Association. In this episode, Dr. Sinsky reflects on her career at the AMA prior to her retirement and the lasting impact of her work to improve physician well-being. AMA CXO Todd Unger hosts.
