Burnout in Urology: Findings from the 2016 AUA Annual Census

Abstract

These results suggest that the burnout rate for urologists is lower than previously reported, and are consistent with rates reported in other medical and surgical specialties. However, burnout continues to be an important issue. Greater workload correlated with increased burnout while other practice patterns appeared to be protective. It is critical to keep urologists in the workforce to help lessen projected shortages.
