Join Wendy Dean, a psychiatrist with expertise in physician well-being and the intersection of medicine and corporate interests. Wendy shares insights into the challenges physicians face when their values clash with the corporate direction of health care institutions. We explore the erosion of traditional medical ethics, the impact of corporate ownership on patient care, and the phenomenon of "moral injury" among health care professionals. Through personal anecdotes and professional analysis, Wendy offers strategies for preserving the sanctity of the doctor-patient relationship in an increasingly corporatized health care landscape.

Wendy Dean is a psychiatrist.

She discusses the KevinMD article, "From compassionate care to corporate medicine: Physicians speak out."
