In residency, it’s easy to romanticize what your life is going to be like when you get out into the world of private practice or academia, but the reality is often different from what you would expect. This episode will ensure that you are better prepared to handle the challenges that you are likely to experience in life after residency! Joining me today are Dr. Paul Rollins, from the private practice side, and Dr. Ben Hechler from the academic side, to share the biggest shocks that they received when they left residency, and their advice for overcoming them. From the importance of communicating your mistakes with your patients (yes, mistakes are inevitable!) to how to lead a team, this episode covers (almost) everything you need to get your head around the challenges of being in practice.
