Ep. 61 - The Health and Wellness of a Colorectal Surgeon
Tuesday, 27 May, 2025

In this candid episode, join our hosts as they tackle the critical topic of health, wellness, and burnout in surgery. Drawing from their own personal experiences, they share the practical strategies they use to maintain balance, build resilience, and foster joy both in and out of the operating room. But this conversation goes beyond coping mechanisms. Our hosts dive deep into the root causes of stress in the surgical profession and explore what it means to proactively design healthier, happier workplaces. They discuss how shifting the focus from individual stress management to eliminating systemic stressors can lead to more sustainable change.
