Hello Psych2Goers! We're sharing an exclusive interview with @JakeGoodmanMD, which was previously shared on the Beyond the Diagnosis podcast (https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/beyondthediagnosis). In this episode, we talk about the challenges and lessons of being a physician accessing mental health services.

Physicians are often regarded as having a fulfilling, desirable career, but what’s often not talked about is the training path to get there: the things that are “behind the scenes”, like the process before residency, residency training, and beyond. What is the experience like from the perspective of someone who, at the time of filming, was a resident physician and, at another time, also a patient? This episode discusses priorities in improving physician mental health from Dr Goodman's unique perspectives.
