WALL STREET JOURNAL: MED SCHOOL BURNOUT 

PROGNOSES FOR BURNT-OUT MED STUDENTS AND THEIR PATIENTS

https://blogs.wsj.com/experts/2017/09/12/how-medical-schools-can-better-fight-burnout/

MED SCHOOL BURNOUT PRODUCES INEFFECTIVE UNENGAGED MEDICAL STUDENTS AND ULTIMATELY POOR MDS.

A problem that needs to be addressed and appropriately managed. Open discussion and encouragement of such discussion should be implemented by all medical schools.

Better mental health care for medical students, ditching the mental health stigma, and employment of mental health resources for medical students will lead to better prognoses for not only burgeoning physicians but for their patients.
