Fifty percent of U.S. physicians experience symptoms of professional burnout!

Fifty!

We're tired.

Full of resignation.

Lost our way.

Physicians are held to superhuman expectations.

We're exhausted.

Cynical.

Dying.

Burned out beyond belief.

Doctors need help.

Healer heal thyself is bullshit.

We need something real.

With real results.

Doctors are killing themselves at an alarming rate.

I'm creating a program to help.

It's called EnlightenMed.

Our core values are below.

We've got to care for ourselves before we can care for others.
