Abstract

Background: There are limited data evaluating specific themes of well-being and professional fulfillment in Mohs surgeons.

Objective: To identify factors that drive occupational distress and those that promote well-being and professional fulfillment among Mohs surgeons.

Methods: This is an explanatory sequential mixed-method study, using semistructured individual interviews. Common drivers of physician well-being and fulfillment were identified based on the independent assessment of the coding in the interview transcripts.

Results: This study reports the following qualitative themes: (1) gratitude for the chosen profession and relationships, (2) unrealistic standards of perfection that may have contributed to past career success but are unattainable and create emotional burden, and (3) ability to practice in a manner aligned with personal values promotes professional fulfillment.

Conclusion: This study suggests that gratitude, self-compassion, and ability to practice in a manner aligned with personal values promote well-being and professional fulfillment in Mohs surgeons. Notably, we found that unrealistic standards of perfection and personal-organization practice incongruences contribute to burnout.

莫氏外科医生的幸福感与职业成就感:一项解释性顺序混合方法设计研究。

背景:评估莫氏外科医生幸福感和职业成就感的具体主题的数据有限。目的:探讨莫氏外科医生职业困扰的驱动因素和促进幸福感和职业成就感的因素。方法:这是一项解释性顺序混合方法研究，使用半结构化的个人访谈。基于对访谈记录中编码的独立评估，确定了医生幸福感和满足感的共同驱动因素。结果:本研究报告了以下定性主题:(1)对所选择的职业和人际关系的感激;(2)不切实际的完美标准可能有助于过去的职业成功，但无法实现并产生情感负担;(3)以符合个人价值观的方式进行实践的能力促进了职业成就感。结论:本研究表明，感恩、自我同情和以符合个人价值观的方式进行实践的能力可以促进莫氏外科医生的幸福感和职业成就感。值得注意的是，我们发现不切实际的完美标准和个人与组织实践的不一致会导致倦怠。
