About the Work:
The doctor stands, head lowered, stethoscope in hand. His expression is somber. Behind him are clocks with no hands, as he has lost track of time while caring for patients. Time can seem irrelevant when you're trying to provide care to as many people as possible.
Many doctors endure long shifts, trying to work efficiently, knowing they can't accomplish everything in the time allotted. Over half of all doctors working 50+ hours per week experience burnout. As they make life and death decisions, it's no wonder they experience elevated stress, exhaustion, and frustration.
Time can be a strange and variable construct in healthcare. Medical practitioners expend millions of hours, and their efforts give us millions of hours of life we wouldn't have had otherwise. An American male born in 1924 could expect to live 64 years, and a female could expect to live 71. Boys and girls born in 2024 can expect to live an average of 82 and 86 years, respectively. Things that used to kill us are now outpatient services. Diseases thought incurable are now eradicated. We're even exploring ways to counteract aging.
To all the doctors out there who have slumped their shoulders at the end of their shift, please know that your work is vitally important to all of us, in the most literal sense of the word. Remember that as you spend your time, you give us more of it.
