In an ideal world, the goal of medical education would be to mold students into the best, most competent, and most caring physicians they can be. Curriculums and clinical experiences would be optimized for learning and systems would exist to support students who are struggling. Unfortunately, this is not often the case with medical education in the United States.
It is estimated that nearly half of all medical students suffer from anxiety and nearly a third from depression. Moreover, according to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, 28% of residents experience a major depressive episode during training compared to only 7-8% of similar-aged individuals in the U.S. population. Given these unsettling trends, it is clear that there are deeply-rooted problems within medical education that need to be addressed.
Here are 5 ways that medical education is failing students.
