The Doc, U R… Podcast aims to empower physicians (from medical school and beyond) and combat the stigmas surrounding their mental health and diminish physicians affected by limiting beliefs, working small, and burnout. We will start with the women doctors in our lives and provide conversations geared towards female physicians, but understand this is not just about female physicians.

The objective of the podcast is to de-stigmatize physician mental health. The goals are to humanize physicians, empower female physicians, and bring awareness to their healing needs. The theme this season is “Navigating Mental Health & Medicine: Defining Burnout, An Occupational Hazard.”

This week, Dr. Kiki speaks with Dr. Susan Wilson. A retired Emergency Medicine physician, Dr. Wilson works as a Physician peer coach, helping younger medical professionals through their journey through medicine. She is a proponent of peer support and its ability to help physicians through Second Victim Syndrome.

In this episode:

• What transitioning between practicing medicine to coaching was like
• What is Second Victim Syndrome,  how to treat it and work through it
• Understanding the emotional impact of medical events on both patients and physicians
• The need to educate physicians on Second Victim Syndrome

Enjoy as Dr. Wilson talks about her love of the medical field and how everyone needs a support system.
