Anyone have any thoughts on the ER doctor from Los Gatos who has been all over the news today? Apparently a college student came in complaining of an anxiety attack and according to the news, the patient was "taunted." The patient was asking for pain and anxiety meds. I definitely think this is an example of burnout. It seems like the physician didn't think a visit to the ER was warranted and she was upset because she had sicker people to take care of. I'm not condoning how she handled the situation, I just think we really need to address burnout.
