  • Resumen

  • Urology was recently named the most burned out specialty in the medical field – a title that we’re not particularly proud of. How can we better support ourselves and one another, and take real steps towards improving career satisfaction and mental health within our specialty? In this episode of the BackTable Urology Podcast, Dr. Nishant Patel, a urologist from San Diego bravely shares his personal struggles with depression, substance abuse, and suicidality with host Dr. Aditya Bagrodia; and how he overcame the lowest points in his career. --- SYNPOSIS Dr. Patel details his journey from growing up in a small town in Arizona to becoming a successful urologist. He discusses the internal battles, external pressures, and pivotal moments that shaped his life and career. He then highlights the importance of peer support and introduces his new initiative, SafeHavenMD, a platform designed to provide confidential, peer-to-peer support for physicians dealing with mental health and substance abuse issues. This episode is a must-listen as it offers a raw and emotional insight into the often unseen challenges faced by medical professionals. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction 03:29 - Early Signs of Alcoholism 03:56 - Medical School and Escalating Alcohol Use 05:43 - Journey to Sobriety 08:26 - Creating SafeHavenMD 19:40 - Personal Experience and Resources 20:20 - Handling Complications and Peer Support 21:47 - SafeHavenMD: An Overview 23:05 - Monitoring Programs and Confidentiality 24:19 - Disclosing Issues and Seeking Help 34:11 - Closing Message to the Audience
