PRN member Dr. Michelle Mudge-Riley wrote about her departure from clinical practice in an article titled “Why I Quit Practice For Good And How I Learned to Love Healthcare Again” in Physicians Practice.
Here is a brief excerpt:
“I used to be embarrassed about leaving clinical medicine.
Although I’d considered it for awhile, it took me more than three years to make the decision to leave. I worried that if I quit medicine I wouldn’t be able to support myself, and I would turn into a bag lady. I had no training in anything other than patient care.
But I was miserable.”
