description The phenomenon of sudden professional dropout from the medical field is a multifaceted issue influenced by personal, systemic, and societal factors. Physicians and healthcare workers face unparalleled demands, including prolonged work hours, emotional exhaustion, and significant responsibility, which often contribute to burnout and work-life imbalance.
