National Physicians Week
Turn Medical Thanks Our Physicians on National Physicians Week
Physicians are essential leaders of the medical care team in all practice settings. Especially with the recent pandemic, physicians have carried even greater burdens than in previous years. Many recent articles have highlighted concerns with physician burnout, with critical care physicians topping the physician specialties experiencing burnout in a recent 2021 survey.* Looking further into causes of burnout, some items of note include lack of respect from patients, lack of respect from hospital staff, and working too many hours.
During National Physicians Week and throughout the year, we challenge the Turn Medical community to express gratitude for all physicians working tirelessly and caring for our families, communities, friends, and coworkers. They have chosen a job that requires strength, focus, and empathy, but they also deserve empathy and respect in return.
To the physicians who go to work every day and many days without recognition or acknowledgment of their service to our community, we send our deepest thanks and support. We are thankful for all of you!
