Trigger warning: suicide
We have invited Dr. Zakia Alavi again in our podcast to talk about physician burnout and suicide. This is a difficult conversation that needs insights from an expert, and I can only think of Zakia to be one of the best, if not the best, to discuss this topic with. In this episode, we talk about the stigma that physicians face because they are thought to be strong people who are unable to struggle mentally. If they do, they can simply prescribe medicines for themselves. This is not the case in real life. Physicians are humans too and like their patients, they may also need help.
