Dear Listeners,
This is a special episode of Suicide Pages.
One of two this week. Both dedicated to physician wellness during this pandemic.
Just last week another physician lost his life to suicide, bringing the number to about 13 so far that I have become aware during this time!
It is the year 2020 and physicians still have the highest rates of suicides in the United States, to the tune of about 1.1 per day or 400 per year!
This and the next several episodes are dedicated to doctors.
The idea to do it was borne out of sheer desperation on my part and a perceived need to highlight physicians' lives and struggles during the pandemic.
I felt pulled to interview them following the suicide of Dr. Lorna Breen earlier this year in the heart of the lockdown.
This week's guests are Drs. Yashika Dooley-Chang and Katherine Igah-Phillips, the original idea was to interview 19 doctors for the Covid - 19... :)
Y'all, please find these fine ladies and support and follow them.
And continue to share this podcast, and thank you for the reviews!
Dr. L
