In this episode I dive into a question I think we all ask ourselves during our arduous medical training: Should I leave residency? Is this really for me? While I wish I had the silver bullet - sadly I don’t. But what I do have are some of my own personal insights to share as I tried to answer this very same question - heck, I almost left residency twice! I guarantee you will find some helpful insights into your own dilemma.
