Listen "Physicians as Patients: Disability in Medicine"
Episode Synopsis
Clinicians are often referred to as heroes for the long hours we work and the life saving work that we do. However, this idea of the "invincible" doctor often does a disservice to our profession and patients by creating the idea that disease and illness are only experienced by our patients. Our guests, Dr. Justin Bullock and Dr. Mansi Sheth, share their stories of going through medical training with a chronic illness and discuss the limitations of our medical system in doing so. Trigger warning: This episode discusses suicide and suicidal ideation. Learning Objectives: Define physical and mental disability as outlined by the Americans with Disabilities Act. List two criteria the ACGME requires residency programs to fulfill for residents with disabilities. Identify the most common types of clinical and didactic accommodations provided by institutions for physicians in training.
