“RISE dissolved barriers and made it easy to get to appointments. It was confidential, and I felt at ease talking to the provider. They made me feel like I wasn't alone, and that there are many other residents experiencing exactly what I was going through.
The culture of medicine, unfortunately, causes us to hide our "burn out" and put a smile on and go on with our day. I was close to quitting residency that day. I was relieved to find out what I was feeling wasn't uncommon, it is just never talked about.”
