Around 50% of physicians today are experiencing at least one symptom of burnout, which has emerged as a crisis in the healthcare industry. Dr. Adelman leads Physicians’ Health Service at Massachusetts Medical Society which has seen a nearly tripling of physicians seeking assistance for burnout in the past four years. Physician & coach Leslie Schwab, who is leading a research study on coaching for physician burnout funded by an IOC Harnisch grant, coaches physician clients dealing with their mounting challenges in healthcare today. Based on their “in the trenches” experience, Drs. Adelman and Schwab will provide an overview of physician burnout, describe the work of coaches to support physicians in developing resilience and improving performance, and propose a vision of physician well-being for the future.

Presenters:  Steven Adelman, M.D. and Leslie Schwab, M.D.
Host:  Margaret Moore, MBA
