I've always thought this ZDoggMD character was trying just a little too hard to be hip and cool (seriously ... 99% of people who refer to themselves as Dog or Dawg or Dogg are just straight up tools), but he's absolutely 100% correct here.
i agree with the video. even in fields like EM there is significant burnout despite low hours worked. it's more than just hours worked though it plays a factor.
also its good that there are doctors out there who take their time to fight for our fields. we need more vocal people like him

EM traditionally is amongst the highest 1 or 2 “burnout” specialties.

I surprised urology is that high although extracting stones every night could get old quick and I’ve heard the clinic is dreadfulis this from that study? cause based on surveys, it changes every year, EM is usually in the top 7 though . according to Medscape, urology, neurology, and PMR are the top 3 this year. im surprised PMR is that high
Kind of dismissive of people that actually are going through the burnout that people mean when they say "burnout". The over extended, high intensity situation that has more to do with that than not being able to practice medicine the way you want to. Don't think all of it can be reduced to moral outrage or whatever... And the only people that affect meaningful change that drop f bombs frequently are also holding guns so the rest of us probably will just need to avoid the emotional theatrics and focus on the problems at hand moving forward.
btw our emr has only made patient care where I am more efficient and frankly, easier. It's scary and sad he knows so many people that have committed suicide, but if its over an emr, it isn't the emr.
You know... sometimes I actually agree with you!Magnificent.

Ya, I’ve heard urology clinic is full of dicks.

That’s cool-rectal clinic. Great surgical field in my opinion just too many a$$holes.Don’t forget the dinguses

Also taking ridiculous amounts of call....that will make you hate work QUICKMost of the anesthesiologists unhappy in their practice have reasons related to exactly what he mentions in the video. Supervising 3:1 and 4:1 sucks but that's what required of many of us nowadays in the name of throughput, efficiency, and higher billables / hr. All of us (except for the 4:1 PP mercenaries in good payer mix areas who are killing it $$$-wise) know that the gold standard of patient care is a board-certified anesthesiologist sitting the stool. Ignoring the feasibility or logistics of all MD anesthesiology in this country, patients, at the end of the day, are not getting the best care possible, and administrators don't give a sht about quality as long as the cases percolate on through quickly, everyone wakes up, and no one dies. I think "burnout" for the average anesthesiologist is likely inseparable from at least some degree of moral outrage.
Hah! Naturally you and Snoop make up the 1%.Hey! Thanks a lot a$$hole.
I feel like tort reform might be the answer. Take away the litigious nature of the field and all of a sudden there'd be less need for covering our asse... erm, charting.I feel I spend more time filling out paperwork than taking care\talking to patients most of the day. Hard to keep a human touch when you spend more time in front of a computer or have to get documenting done in a timely manner. What's the answer? I don't know...
Really? Anesthesia seems to be the field in which you write the least. In my practice I frequently work with CRNA’s and the only writing I do all day is my signature and maybe the occasional check box preopI feel I spend more time filling out paperwork than taking care\talking to patients most of the day.

We don’t all work with nurses. Some of us hate that crap. The running around like a headless chicken being a paper monkey.Really? Anesthesia seems to be the field in which you write the least.

some of the computer systems suck real bad in emergencies as well. no time to be clicking when pushing multiple drugs etc. some times also have to match nursing times and stuff.
i remember that was an issue with the Joan rivers case, some of the times recorded by anesthesiologist was a couple minutes off from what the nurse wrote in their documentation..
i think all this crap from the litigious nature of our country. so many useless notes especially nursing notes, diluting the actual important information in the chart. everyones trying to cover their butt. its sad. its changed the way people practice and teach
Would love to know what you guys are using. Thanks
