- Healthcare Management
- Physician Well-being
Background:

- To identify the primary drivers of dissatisfaction within the medical profession.
Main Methods:
- Qualitative analysis of physician sentiment regarding professional practice.
- Examination of the impact of healthcare industry changes on medical practice.
Main Results:
