Abstract

Training to become a physician is a long, arduous, and anxiety-provoking process. There will be times of emotional upheaval, profound apprehension, and questions of professionalism. However, there will also be opportunities to gain deep knowledge and to develop long-standing friendships and relationships. This chapter highlights how physicians were able to cope with these challenges as they progressed through medical school and residency. This is a subcollection from the book, Becoming a Better Physician, which contains stories from doctors and doctors-to-be about the obstacles they faced, how they responded, and how the experience affected their lives, work, or perspectives to make them better physicians.
