26 - Dr. Nisha Mehta Part 1 - What is Unique About Physician Burnout?




The Penn HealthX Podcast show

Summary: This episode is a conversation I had with Dr. Nisha Mehta, who is a Penn Med alum! She is currently a radiologist, writer, speaker, and physician advocate. Her writing has been featured in Forbes, PBS NewsHour, Doximity, and KevinMD, among many others. She writes and speaks on many topics in medicine, including physician burnout, work-life balance, wellness, and personal finance. She is also the founder of the Facebook group, Physician Side Gigs, where over 15,000 physicians share stories of how they pursue passion projects both in and out of clinical medicine. I first heard Dr. Mehta when she was a guest on the podcast Docs Outside the Box, and was so proud to see another amazing Penn Med alum out there making an impact. I’m thrilled to share this conversation with you all, and to join the Physician Side Gigs group in a few years.
