New Mayo Clinic Study Finds Profound Changes Impacting the Practice of Medicine

This shift, a stark contrast to earlier trends, reflects the deep-seated challenges physicians face in the post-pandemic era. These findings have potentially profound implications for the adequacy of a US physician workforce already facing substantial shortages. It’s a wake-up call to address burnout and sustainability in our field. Explore these pivotal findings and contribute to the crucial dialogue on shaping the future of healthcare.
