I am 42 years old and I have been in practice now for almost 20 years, the last 6 years, locally in Tampa, FL. And who would have thought, but I lost my job to COVID19-ED Related Volume Declines. I was off the market for 45 minutes and found myself with a new job the same day, that I was let go. As stressful as it seems, its an opportunity to re-invent myself, to grab life by the horns, and to take massive action!. I cannot fall asleep in the laurels. Life could be unfair, and at any minute could turn its back on us. But here we are, with a brand new attitude towards life and at work. A moment of reflection. A pause in life, to move forward and move along. With the support of my family, and my loved coworkers I will overcome any adversity, and my only motivation is to keep going. I won’t take it as a crisis, its a situation to learn from, and make myself a better person, a better physician and why not, maybe, one small door closed, but probably a huge gate is waiting for me on the other side. I am confident about what the future will bring and at the same time excited about new opportunities to grow and rediscover myself. Never give up! – Life goes on…
