Does it Really Exist? – Maybe Not!
According to the World Health Organization, occupational burnout is a syndrome linked to long-term, unresolved, work-related stress.
Since May 2019, the WHO stipulated that burnout must be understood as being specifically work-related; and result in symptoms such as “feelings of energy depletion or exhaustion; increased mental distance from one’s job, or feelings of negativism or cynicism related to one’s job; and reduced professional efficacy.”

QUERY: So, what about physician “burnout”? Real -OR- perceived?
