Physician burnout isn’t just about long hours, it’s about living in a constant state of stress. In this episode of The Interesting MD Podcast, Dr. Rob Beck speaks with Dr. Amber Hull, a U.S.-trained, Canada-licensed physician, about why she ultimately left American medicine and started over in Canada.

Dr. Hull opens up about the toll of hyper-vigilance, distrust, and adversarial relationships in U.S. healthcare, especially for women physicians. She shares how burnout pushed many of her peers to consider leaving medicine entirely, and how moving to Canada allowed her to reconnect with integrative, holistic care and a more collaborative medical culture.

A powerful, reflective conversation about loss, resilience, and choosing a healthier path forward.

🎧 Listen next week for Part 2, where Dr. Hull breaks down the practical realities of relocating and practicing medicine in Canada.
