Self-Reported Flourishing Among U.S. Surgeons: A National Physician Survey
Listen to this summary
The authors aimed to assess the levels of flourishing among U.S. surgeons and identify personal and professional factors associated with it. Through a survey of 1,000 practicing surgeons, they found that while surgeons reported high levels of flourishing, particularly in areas of financial stability and meaning, there were notable deficits in social connectivity. The study suggests that addressing these aspects could enhance well-being and reduce burnout in the surgical profession.
