Histopathology, a crucial yet often under-recognized medical specialty, plays a vital role in accurate disease diagnosis. Histopathologists, sometimes referred to as "silent diagnosticians" due to their work behind the scenes, analyze tissue samples to guide patient treatment plans. However, this critical field faces significant challenges that threaten patient care. Budgetary constraints are impacting pathology departments, leading to staffing shortages, outdated equipment, and potentially longer turnaround times for diagnoses. This can delay critical treatment decisions for patients. Moreover, a significant salary disparity exists. Despite their crucial role in disease detection and treatment planning, histopathologists often receive lower salaries compared to other specialties. This discourages talented individuals from entering the field, further exacerbating the potential staffing shortage and ultimately compromising patient care.⚕️ Even worse, job burnout is a reality in histopathology. Low starting salaries, limited professional development opportunities, and demanding workloads can lead to burnout and job dissatisfaction among histopathologists. This negatively impacts the quality of care and, ultimately, patient outcomes. To ensure continued high-quality patient care, we must address these challenges. Increased public recognition of the vital role histopathologists play in healthcare is crucial. Additionally, policies ensuring fair compensation for their expertise and contributions are essential. Finally, investing in training programs and professional development opportunities can attract and retain talented individuals, securing the future of the specialty and ultimately, better patient care for all. Only by working together can we ensure that histopathologists remain the unseen heroes, saving lives through accurate diagnoses and guiding treatment plans.⚕️ SOURCE: https://lnkd.in/ecR_38wD #Histopathology #HealthcareHeroes #FairCompensation #InvestInTheFuture #PatientCare

Workforce Burnout: Low salaries, limited advancement, and demanding workloads can lead to burnout and job dissatisfaction, impacting the quality of care delivered. Call to Action: Securing a Brighter Future To ensure continued high-quality patient care, let's address these challenges: Raise Awareness: Public recognition of the crucial role histopathologists play in healthcare is essential. Advocate for Fair Compensation: Policies promoting fair compensation for their expertise and contributions are necessary. Invest in the Future: Supporting training programs and career development opportunities can attract and retain talent, securing the future of histopathology and ultimately, better outcomes for all.

Last week I spoke to 3 different urologists who are all considering a career change. The common theme? A loss of physician autonomy. All 3 physicians spoke about how their voices are silenced. What did they have to say? "I've tried to improve things but I keep being told, NO!" "The amount of administrative work keeps increasing and they tell me it's my job to get it done." "We were bought by private equity and things have changed. Not for the better." "They've labeled me as difficult." "I don't even know what our new CEO looks like. No one does." I empathized with my colleagues. At some point in my career I went through similar experiences. Including the time one employer silenced me for good . . . I was fired. They also shared with me varying levels of burnout, moral injury, whatever you want to call that feeling of helplessness, hopelessness, and apathy. But . . . they still wanted to be physicians. They just didn't know where to go next. What was my advice? 1. Create a list describing your ideal job. What are your non-negotiables? What's truly important to you? What are you willing to say "no" to in order to say "yes" to something better? 2. Go find or create that job. I warned them all that any other employed position as a physician was likely going to lead them down a similar path. They all agreed but probably needed to hear it anyway. I also shared that the only truly happy physicians I knew, either opened their own practice or joined a similar practice to Pazona MD Urology and VirtuCare. I ended our conversation on a positive note. I congratulated them for having the courage to consider an alternative path. To say, "no more" to being a voiceless widget in an organization that could only envision them as line items on a spreadsheet. It takes courage as a physician to break free of the golden handcuffs of an employed position. But that courage is necessary if you want to regain your autonomy, and practice the type of medicine you dreamed about as a 20-something year old medical student. You're not alone. Your voice does matter. Starting or joining an independent medical practice isn't risky. Remaining a voiceless number in an organization that doesn't value you? Well, that's risky. #physicianburnout #physicianwellness #physicians #urologists #privatepractice #healthcare

🚨 Attention rural hospital executives 🚨Recruiting a full-time urologist to your community is unlikely to happen. And the recruiters you hire are not helping. Right now on PracticeLink there are about 1000 job postings for a urologist. Some of these jobs have been unfilled for several YEARS. Why? Simple math. In the U.S. about 330 urologists finish residency training. 90% will choose to live in metropolitan (>50,000 people) areas. So you're hoping one of the 33 graduating urologists a year is going to pick your hospital over the other 999? Good luck☘ 🌈 Back to the "recruiters" you've hired. I don't think many of them realize we have this fancy tool called the internet to check their "facts" in the job posting. Some examples: 1. "Lovely southern town" - Violent crime rates 54% higher than the average city. 2. "Replace retiring physicians" - They actually quit because of a toxic culture. 3. "Only 10 days of light ER call a month" - There's no such thing as "light" call. Any quality physician is going to look at these job posting and say "no thanks". But here's the good news. You have another option. VirtuCare has partnered with hospitals like yours, from Montana to Virginia, to build comprehensive, profitable 💹 outpatient urology clinics. How do we do it? Leverage. We leverage the significant urology workforce who have left full-time practice and want part-time work. We leverage educating local APPs. We leverage technology like telemedicine. And the best part? We can have you up in running within 3-4 months. Your strategy of "hope" is not going to land you a 🦄. Instead, choose the high quality, deliverable option for urology services. VirtuCare the practical choice🐴 At the very least, please ditch the job posting. It's really not helping. #ruralhealthcare #healthcareexecutives #worksmarternotharder #physicianrecruitment #physicians #urology #telemedicine #healthcare

Casey P Schukow, DO et al. - thank you for highlighting the value of thoughtful and ethical use of social media to attract learners to the field of forensic pathology. I have met so many smart, driven, and compassionate learners at all levels of training, who have reached out to me via social media after a post caught their eye. How can medical students see a future in forensic pathology, if they don't know forensic pathology exists? #PhysicianEducation How (Cautious) Social Media Use May Improve Education and Pipeline Efforts of a Growing Postpandemic Forensic Pathologist Workforce Shortage -- "The review supports the idea that strategic, ethical, and conscientious use of SoMe (social media) has a place in addressing the growing workforce shortages and closing educational gaps in forensic pathology by enhancing exposure to the field and dispelling antiquated stereotypes."
PGY-2 Resident Pathologist at Corewell Health William Beaumont University Hospital (WBUH) in Royal Oak (MI)
We currently have a shortage of #forensic pathologists. However, we believe that (cautious) #socialmedia use may help improve education and recruitment efforts.

I am just an energetic resident physician who likes to try new things and reflect on my experiences. I welcome all kind, courteous, and constructive feedback, including collaboration ideas or potential future topics to write on. With this, I reserve the right to not respond to mean or "troll"-like comments on any of my authored content or other posted materials. 👋 Thank you! Best, Casey
