In this special holiday edition of HeART of Medicine, Dr. Payal Kohli and guest Dr. Jazaeri discuss how a doctor can never really be “out of office”?  And should they be? Or does the profession have a higher calling that requires this type of dedication?  Is this constant sacrifice of being away from our family and friends and working on holidays an expected part of the job or is it a recipe for burnout? Does the system “have our back” or are we left to take care of the ever growing conveyor belt of demands placed on us?
 
Whether you are a physician or a patient, this episode is one that really highlights how physicians constantly walk the tightrope between being doctors and being people. A great holiday listen for anyone as we all reflect upon the year behind us and gear up for the next ahead of us.
