#PhysicianBurnout “is the remnant of a fire. I’ve never seen a piece of charred wood & thought that some time by itself & some water will restore it to its former state.” Dr. Sudhakar Nuti wonders aloud if he’ll ever be the same again. Medicine Forward statnews.com/2021/11/05/has…

Wow. It’s hard to describe the response to my story. It is heartwarming to feel the love and support of so many — and heartbreaking to learn how many others feel the same. To many who have reached out: I am OK. And thank you. I know that things will be better soon. Baby steps

“What if part of me… has been fundamentally changed and can’t go back? What if I’m charred?”
