(5/5) PHPs must balance saving lives and protecting public safety. Reform advocates urge updated practices and increased accessibility.

As founder of Rethinking Residency I was interviewed for Undark’s incredible piece on physician health programs. Highly recommend this read- many docs out there don’t even know about PHPs, their offerings and limitations. #residencytraining #medicaleducation #Physicianhealthprograms

Many have seen success stories, but critics highlight major challenges.
