Ask yourself these questions:
-
Are you struggling emotionally?
-
Is stress, fatigue, or burnout affecting your life and the enjoyment of your work?
-
Are you not quite yourself at work? At home?
-
Could you benefit from connecting to a peer (another physician who ‘gets it’) who can provide support by listening and talking?

Peer Matched Testimonials
Listen to what others who have experienced DOC2DOCAZ have to say...
This has been a great experience. I moved out of state, thousands of miles from friends and family, just as the pandemic hit. It was so helpful to have someone to talk with about what I was going through. Thank you!
My peer coach initiated follow-up emails. Her help and guidance is very much appreciated. Now I am in a better position. I needed that help during those stressful times.
“I have worked so hard to get where I am.
Thank you for helping me enjoy my work again.”
