The Vanishing Oath

Ribates has a quick review of what seems to be an interesting documentary on physician burnout in the U.S., entitled "The Vanishing Oath," here.
Dr. Wes has a review here.

My take on this? Many physicians in the U.S. are discontent and disillusioned--not necessarily because of disease complexity--but because of the issues of liability, paperwork, and dealing with insurance companies and the games they play.
 In the Third World, disease complexity is much higher, potential outcomes of greater significance to the individual, e.g. many patients may only have a chance of vision with one eye and their livelihoods and even survival may depend on a successful medical/surgical outcome, and payment is often in the form of gratitude (which can be tremendously uplifting).
It continues to be very refreshing even now for me to continue doing international trips with organizations such as Orbis.
