Description
Clare Gerada and Zaid Al-Najjar have been treating doctors for a while now, through the NHS Practitioner Programme.
In that time they have noticed some themes in the issues that bring doctors to them, from isolation to stress.
In this podcast they reflect on what they've learned about the problems that affect doctors, and how covid-19 has exacerbated some, and surprisingly reduced others.
Their book Beneath the White Coat: Doctors, Their Minds and Mental Health is out now
