Retired at 37: Breaking up with a career in medicine
"You are not “burned out.” The problem is the current environment in medicine which puts physicians last on the list. Your stories are not unique, and all too common amongst others in the field. Leaving for you is taking control back. Control of your life and also making a statement for those still in this unhealthy relationship. You join the increasing ranks of young physicians that are finally taking a stand and demanding better from this toxic relationship. The hope is that someone is listening."
