WMA LEADER WARNS OF GLOBAL PHYSICIAN BURNOUT
Doctors across the world are suffering from ‘a pandemic of physician burnout’, the new President of the World Medical Association warned today.
Dr. Leonid Eidelman, past President of the Israeli Medical Association, in his inaugural speech at the WMA’s annual General Assembly in Reykjavik, Iceland said that nearly half of the world’s 10 million physicians had symptoms of burnout, including emotional exhaustion, interpersonal disengagement, and a low sense of personal accomplishment.
This pandemic was being caused, among other things, by very dynamic and changing working conditions and was a ‘blow to modern medicine’.
