Sometimes, the %$#^ hits the fan. As hard as we try to screen patients well, no one’s processes are perfect. Mismanaged expectations can create post-procedure headaches. And even when you set expectations properly, other issues, sometimes psychiatric, may blossom into full view on post-treatment visit number one. We’ll discuss how to prevent conflict before it starts; and how to manage it when it occurs. We‘ll walk through “war stories” and how we solved them. We’ll address lawsuits, Board complaints, and doctors who went to prison.

Mid-career malaise impacts most physicians, and this discontent is common in middle age. Physicians who have achieved acclaim and success aren’t immune to these feelings. Many physicians are stuck in a job or career they once loved, but today, their heart isn’t in it anymore. According to a Gallup survey, only one-third of U.S. physicians feel engaged at work, and only one in three consistently bring a high level of initiative, commitment, passion, and productivity to their jobs. That leaves most physicians less than satisfied with their work. Join Neil H. Baum, MD, as he provides guidance on how to overcome these feelings and eliminate the blahs. This is the third webinar in the Regaining the Joy of Practicing Medicine series.
