Physician burnout is a silent epidemic that's claiming lives. We deep-dive into this topic with our remarkable guest, Sapna Shah-Haque, an internal medicine physician and host of the Worthy Physician podcast. Sapna shares her powerful journey from burnout to recovery and the alarming statistics on physician suicides, emphasizing the importance of healthy coping mechanisms and the courage to seek help.

We then shift to systemic change needed to foster better mental health support. We discuss whether or not institutions are doing enough to create a supportive culture, the need for equal access to mental health services, and the toxic environments that can thrive when support is lacking.

In a world that’s been tested like no other in the wake of the pandemic, resilience has taken center stage. But how do you build it, especially when everything around you is falling apart? Join us, on this episode not just about surviving, but about thriving in the face of adversity.

Dr. Sapna Shah-Haque, MD is a board-certified internal medicine physician.  After experiencing burnout herself and watching other physician colleagues burn out, it became her passion to look into different aspects of burnout.  She is the host of The Worthy Physician podcast, as a way to reach physicians and possibly shed light on what is not an isolated situation. 

You can find her on her website The Worthy Physician.
