The burnout crisis is real - and so is the solution.
According to a 2025 Stanford Medicine study, 45.2% of American physicians report at least one symptom of burnout. That’s nearly half of all doctors.
And burnout doesn’t stay in the doctor’s lounge. It follows us into the exam room, where it can quietly compromise the care our patients deserve.
Every physician I know went into medicine to help people - truly help them. But it’s nearly impossible to do that well in a 20-minute visit. There’s no time to address chronic disease management, prevention, or the very real needs of the more than half the world’s population navigating perimenopause and menopause. The system isn’t designed for that kind of care. It never was.
So I stopped waiting for the system to change.
After 15+ years in traditional, insurance-based medicine, I made the leap to Direct Primary Care - and started Rhythm Medical. Direct Primary Care gives me the time and freedom to deliver longer, personalized, whole-person care. The kind of care I always wanted to give.
