“Few physicians feel properly prepared to face the fear caused by this pandemic. I certainly did not. However, we continue to show up every day for our colleagues and our patients. We continue to focus on our jobs and the things that we can do to help. Let’s not forget to find moments throughout the day to recognize that we are fearful and for good reason. Face the fear and then keep going, just as we have always done.”

Kristin Yates is an obstetrics-gynecology physician.

She shares her story and discusses her KevinMD article, “Coping with fear as a physician during a pandemic.”
