Thinking About Quitting Medicine
Brought together from various fields of medicine, a team of visionary physicians came together with the shared mission of guiding our current generation of frustrated physicians to finding a path in medicine that is aligned with their ideal lifestyle vision.
From Emergency Medicine, to Obstetrics and Gynecology, to Pediatrics to Radiation Oncology, to Psychiatry, to Psychology, to Beauty Queens with combined Law and Medical Doctorates, we’ve brought our best docs together. We’ve brought you medical school professors, entrepreneurs, publishers, locum tenens practitioners, doctors who entirely quit medicine to build virtual worlds, doctors who left the world of traditional practice to do missionary work.
They’ve all come together to share with you their experiences during medical training, their careers and lives after medical training out in the real world, and the feelings and thoughts that called them to consider alternatives to medicine.
In this book Dr. Terri is one of 13 physicians to share her unique journey to practicing medicine differently and finding joy again in caring for patients and families after once considering leaving medicine for good.
Early Arrival
No parent wants to be in the intensive care nursery. It’s a frightening, often overwhelming place full of alarms, machines, doctors, and nurses—and, most terrifying of all, full of tiny babies fighting to survive. Parents who had planned to welcome their child home are faced with seeing that child weeks, maybe months earlier than planned, covered in a bewildering array of equipment keeping him or her alive. In such a situation, fear is understandable.
In Early Arrival: 9 Things Parents Need to Know about Life in the ICU Nursery: A Doctor’s Step-by-Step Guide, neonatologist and NICU physician Dr. Terri Major-Kincade works to dispel some of that fear by providing knowledge about what to expect in the NICU. You may have missed your nine months with your early arrival, but you can use these nine steps to guide you the rest of the way.
Dr. Terri, practicing medical doctor and best-selling author and champion for premature babies and their families. Board-certified in both pediatrics and neonatology, she is a pioneer in the field of neonatal palliative care. She has been featured on ABC’s Houston Medical, Good Morning America, and Lifetime’s Women Docs and is frequently a keynote speaker at national pediatric, obstetric, and palliative care conferences. Her mission is to empower families to make informed choices for their babies, one family at a time….at a time when they believe they have no choices, as well as to empower physicians and nurses to help families making those difficult choices. She strongly believes that, while it is not possible to save every baby, finding hope during despair is a gift that benefits both families and staff as they do their very best to care for both the family and the baby. Dr. Terri lives in Dallas, Texas, with her husband, two children and two dogs. She was inspired to pursue a career in neonatology by her own sister who was born three months early in 1968. After 20+ years in practice she remains fascinated to this day with babies that are tiny enough to fit in the palm of your hand.
Handbook of Perinatal and Neonatal Palliative Care
In 2019 Dr. Terri fulfilled a lifelong dream in contributing to a textbook chapter on Suspending Judgement in the new Handbook of Perinatal and Neonatal Palliative Care Textbook.
The Handbook of Perinatal and Neonatal Palliative Care is an extraordinarily comprehensive and well-written volume that should be read by every clinician caring for pregnant women and newborns. The case-oriented format of each chapter makes the volume readable and also useful as a resource in complex situations. This book spans all aspects of the clinical and compassionate care of patients, families, and caregivers. Written by experts from all clinical disciplines, including medical and surgical physicians,mental health professionals, nurses, therapists, and chaplains, it also shows great respect for and gives voice to the parents of affected fetuses and neonates. ~ Alan R.
