Manage episode 362307719 series 3446410
"There's nothing more upsetting than maybe spending your life growing up to be a physician in emergency medicine. And 5, 10, 15 years into your career, you suddenly wake up one morning and say, 'I hate my life. I hate my job.' How does one change direction at that time in your life?"
But how can you make a change? Or are there ways to feel not so burned out?
About Our Guest:
Dr. Harry Severance is from Duke University and the Erlinger Medical Center in Chattanooga, Tennessee. He's been a researcher, a teacher, he's set up residencies, he's done government work, military work, and he's now helping other ER physicians in guiding them through what brings them job satisfaction.
