Physicians often leave clinical medicine not because they donât want to see patients anymore, but because they are burned out from the charting, long hours, and lack of flexibility that come with the role. But what if I told you that a clinical option exists that allows you to keep caring for patients without these common headaches? This is what todayâs guest, Dr. Heather Awad, a family medicine physician who transitioned to wound care, is here to discuss, along with why she loves this role and how you can pursue this option if it interests you.
