Stanford Residents Unionize #345

Show Notes

Back home from completing a four-day work weekend, Dr. Nii joins Dr. Renée in the studio to talk about a recent Wall Street Journal article that reported on Stanford Health Care residents joining the Committee of Interns and Residents (CIR), the largest housestaff union in the United States. The doctors discuss their personal experiences with unions as well as the varied implications of this supermajority move.

Things to expect in this episode:

Conflict between doctors explored – lack of professionalism, egos, stress, work avoidance and energy conservation
Renée’s experience as a delegate with CIR
The Match Program, anti-trust laws, collective bargaining and strikes
The pros, pros, pros and con of unions in medicine
The drastic percentage disparity between unionized residents and doctors

★★★★★ 5/5

This is such an inspiring podcast! Every episode is better than the last! I just got into medical school and Dr. Darko has made me realize that the medical field has countless opportunities in addition to being physicians. We only get one life so let’s make it count and LIVE OUTSIDE THE BOX! Thank you again for all you do, Dr. Darko! I can’t thank you enough!

Thank you so much, Dr. Darko, for finding and then broadcasting the amazing, game-changing work of doctors working outside (and inside) the box. I already had my first bout of professional burnout less than a few years out of residency, but listening to your podcast has inspired me to get my head back in the game and perhaps, find my own unique contribution.

I wish this was around when I was a med student – I can’t say enough about how helpful this has been in pointing out things we as physicians don’t think about. Dr. Darko takes you through these interviews with the ease of a conversation with your colleague and you feel like he’s having aha moments right with you!
