Just made the switch from a small clinic to a large hospital and I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed. How did you all adjust to the pace and complexity of hospital work? Any tips for making a smooth transition?

I completely understand how overwhelming the switch can be! What helped me was setting up a solid organization system for managing patient load and documentation. I also leaned heavily on my more experienced colleagues—don’t be afraid to ask questions or ask for advice. Hospitals have more layers of care, but once you get into the rhythm, it gets easier. Give yourself time to adjust!

When I transitioned from a small clinic to a large hospital, the biggest adjustment was the fast pace. One tip: prioritize communication with your team. Hospitals rely on strong interdisciplinary collaboration, so being proactive and clear with nurses, doctors, and other staff is key. Also, try to embrace the variety—it can be a great learning experience!

Has anyone else noticed they’re stressed without “feeling” stressed? I don’t feel as stressed as when I was in college.

My skin is showing really bad acne, I feel unmotivated even to fill out job applications; I’m having trouble falling asleep at night and even though I sleep past noon sometimes I still feel tired during the day... Is it stress or burnout?
