Meet the Challenges of Working as a Doctor

Are you an overworked doctor who has put aside many of the joys of life because you've been striving for years to reach the pinnacle of the medical profession wherever or whatever you perceive that to be?

After years of studying Medicine, designing and carrying out and then writing up medical research projects so that your name can be listed amongst the good and the great doctors, yet you feel as though something is missing from your life.

You have gradually come to the realisation that there is more to life than Medicine and may experience guilt about even having that thought.

What is it about the culture of Medicine that means that many doctors, believe that everything else in life must take second place to progression in your specialty? Yet there is a dilemma here: senior doctors who have lived this life and don't want to admit any regrets, maintain that in order to be the best medical specialist you need to devote the majority of your time to working as a doctor and learning in and about your chosen medical specialty.

This books guides you through ways to have a more balanced life and continue working as a doctor.
