Practice Well — for Doctors

The Problem

"Medicine asks a great deal of the people who practise it, especially in the first years, and doctors are often better at caring for others than for themselves. Health is more than the absence of illness, for you as much as for your patients. This programme gives you a steady, practical way to build the relationships, energy and meaning that sustain a working life in medicine."
