“…7,8 Furthermore, transplant surgeons sleep significantly less than the average American, averaging 6.33 h a night. 9 This optimal procurement time could possibly further contribute to lack of sleep among these individuals and lead to higher rates of burnout [10][11][12][13][14][15] as well as medical errors. 16 However, this scheduled procurement timing could possibly alleviate lack of transparent schedules among providers.…”

“…Burnout among transplant fellows is prevalent and three primary contributors are work/life balance, finances, and job security, with, 79% of surveyed fellows reporting worry about job opportunities 17 . Recent work also found that 25% of early‐career transplant surgeons experience attrition and leave the field, which was directly associated with individual transplant volume 18 . Rather than implementing non‐individualized, large scale wellness initiatives that have been shown to be time consuming, costly, and ineffective, 19,20 supporting fellows during transition to practice and mentorship during the early years of one's career to achieve job satisfaction may prove more beneficial.…”

Despite the challenges associated with the nature of the job, a career in transplant surgery is very rewarding and transplants surgeons report some of the highest rates of satisfaction compared to other surgeons.…”

“…Early-career attrition, often defined as leaving practice within the first 5 to 10 years, is a major issue for several reasons [7,13]. Whereas attrition among older individuals might be attributed to retirement and is seen as a natural component of workforce fluctuations, attrition during the early-career phase poses a host of challenges from an individual, health system, and societal perspective [13,25,28]. Recent survey studies have estimated that most orthopaedic residents report personal debts in excess of USD 200,000 [20,23].…”

“…The second condition was consistent absence from the PC-NDF dataset for the following 6 years (Q1 2016, Q1 2017, Q1 2018, Q1 2019, Q1 2020, and Q1 2021), and the third condition was absence from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Opt-Out registry, which tracks clinicians who have formally discontinued enrollment in the Medicare program. Of the 18,107 orthopaedic surgeons identified in the dataset, 5% (938) were women, 33% (6045) were subspecialty-trained, 77% (13,949) practiced in groups of 10 or more, 24% (4405) practiced in the Midwest, 87% (15,816) practiced in urban areas, and 22% (3887) practiced Each author certifies that there are no funding or commercial associations (consultancies, stock ownership, equity interest, patent/licensing arrangements, etc.) that might pose a conflict of interest in connection with the submitted article related to the author or any immediate family members.…”
