Feeling burnt out from too much empathy? Take a step back and approach patients with compassion instead. Compassion means wishing well for your patients without taking on their pain. It’s a small shift that can make a big difference in your emotional reserves. Learned this gem from Dr. Barry Kerzin, the Dalai Lama’s physician. #burnoutprevention #compassion #physicianburnout #emergencymedicine
