Burnout adversely affects pathologists’ quality of life and their ability to practice high quality patient care. It can lead to medical errors and increased malpractice risk, professional turnover, and significant morbidity as well as mortality, as Marisa Saint Martin, MD, FCAP, explains in this CAPcast.

Dr. Saint Martin will be one of the leaders of a CAP21 course on this topic; the course is entitled, “When the Fire is Gone: Strategies to Reignite Your Resiliency.” For more information on CAP21, which will be held Sept. 25-28, please visit capannualmeeting.org.
