“Have you ever wondered how much time we spend worrying about call, versus the amount of time that we actually spend being on call? What about the Monday after a long weekend, returning from vacation, or an overnight shift? Is it as bad as we think it’s going to be, even a fraction of the time? Is it worth all of that anticipation?”
Katie Townes is a physician and founder, Physician Lounge Online.
She shares her story and discusses her KevinMD article, “4 ways to decrease your dread of being on-call.”
