according to Medscape’s Endocrinologist Lifestyle, Happiness, and Burnout Report 2020.
The report, which surveyed more than 15,000 physicians from various specialties, found that 31% of endocrinologists are burned out, 2% are depressed, and 16% are both depressed and burned out. Among them, 71% report having too many bureaucratic tasks as the biggest contributor, followed by insufficient reimbursement/compensation at 46% and increasing computerization of tasks (including EHR) at 34%.
The top way endocrinologists cope is by talking with family and close friends (42%), with almost equal amounts coping by either eating junk food or exercising (39% and 37%, respectively). Regarding professional help, 60% said they would not and have not previously sought professional help, while 12% said they were currently seeking professional help. Although 40% said they would engage a workplace program, 31% said they would not.
Among the reasons they gave for not seeking professional help, 45% felt they were too busy, 40% didn’t think their symptoms were severe enough, and 36% said they could handle it without help from professionals.
