A qualitative study of resident and early-career family physicians' focused practice choices in Canada

CONCLUSION: Both groups of participants unanimously viewed focused practice as a way to circumvent the burnout or exhaustion they associated with comprehensive practice in the current structure of the health care system. This finding, in addition to other influential factors, was consistent across the three provinces. More research is needed to understand the implications of resident and early-career family physician choices of focused practice within the physician workforce.PMID:35023851 | DOI:10.3399/BJGP.2021.0512
