Why I Left American Medicine After 15 Years with Dr. Sarah Mauthe Part I

In Part 1 of this three-part conversation, Dr. Rob Beck sits down with Dr. Sarah Mauthe, a Canadian-born physician who spent roughly 15 years training and practicing medicine in the United States before returning to Canada. Sarah talks about her experiences in Alabama, Nevada, and California, from the rewarding early years of hospital medicine to the growing pressures of understaffing, administrative demands, and physician burnout. She also shares how her employer allegedly delayed her green card paperwork, leaving her feeling trapped in a job where she once worked 24 consecutive days and saw as many as 60 patients a day. It's a conversation about the realities of American medicine, the challenges immigrant physicians can face, and what happens when a career you love starts taking more than it gives. In Part 2, Sarah shares more about her decision to leave the U.S. and rediscover her passion for medicine. Special thanks to Physician Financing for supporting this episode.
