PHYSICIANS LEAVING CLINICAL PRACTICE
So, now what?
If you have decided to leave clinical practice, DPS Consultation can help you navigate that journey.
Reasons for leaving clinical practice abound: retirement, organizational changes, burn-out, illness. It can be a disorienting and difficult transition period. Despite your newfound freedom, you might experience sadness, self-doubt, a sense of loss, or a fear of becoming irrelevant.
After investing thousands of hours in your practice and personal reputation, even your family might not be able to understand your decision.
Nevertheless, roles that apply your medical experience and skills also abound, along with a plethora of non-clinical activities that physicians and other healthcare professionals can excel in.
Dr. Daniel Stoltzfus of DPS Consultation has practiced more than 30 years, made multiple career transitions, and retired early due to a rare illness. These experiences reflect persistence, resilience and creation leading to a state of prevailing, not failing. He knows the world of medical practice unlike other professional coaches.
