“The current distress experienced by physicians and other health professionals is, in part, a breakdown of the relationship between our inner lives – our sense of calling and meaning – and the environment in which we work.”
There is an upcoming Med Moth event on Tuesday, May 7 from 5:30-7:00 p.m. in the Albert Sherman Center multi-purpose room (across from the cafeteria).
