Promising Young Surgeon

This is a podcast by a surgeon, for surgeons and physicians, about the dark underbelly of medicine. So many physicians are miserable, with the American Medical Association quoting that at least 40% are eyeing their exits from medicine altogether. This podcast is a place for candid conversation about the grueling and often abusive residency training system as well as techniques to improve survival. Everyone has these stories from training– but no one is publishing them. No one is willing to disrupt the status quo or lose their standing in academia. And consequently, a huge population suffers in silence, including the next generation of young physicians. I am willing to call a spade a spade and have conversations with other surgeons, physicians, subject matter experts, because it’s time for cultural change in medicine.

Frances Mei Hardin, MD is a full-time otolaryngologist and founder of the brand Rethinking Residency. She graduated from the University of Notre Dame at 20 years old with a degree in biochemistry with honors, completed her medical school education at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine as a member of AOA, and finished a 5-year ENT residency in the Midwest. In addition to her ENT practice at a rural community hospital, she is passionate about resident and physician well-being and mental health. She is a proud member of the physician-writer tradition and advocating for a change in the culture of medical training.
