Service Fatigue, Burnout, and the Case for Practicing Medicine on Your Own Terms
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
You went into medicine to help people. You knew it would be hard, but you were ready for that.
What you weren't ready for? Being told, year after year, that the way you were trained to treat patients isn't actually how you're allowed to treat patients.
More restrictions. Less autonomy. A system that slowly replaces your clinical judgment with someone else's agenda… until one day you realize you're not practicing medicine anymore. You're just following rules.
That tension has a name: service fatigue. And if you've ever felt that gap, this episode is for you. Because there is a version of this career that still looks like the reason you chose it.
