CPMA - PHYSICIAN WELLNESS
Physicians inevitably face stressful situations during the course of their careers. They are subjected to the demands of medical practice while navigating an increasingly complex medico-legal environment. The CMPA is committed to learning more about physician stress arising from adverse events and medico-legal issues and in developing ways to help our members deal with stress.  The “Sharing experiences” section of their website will allow physicians to benefit from the insights and coping strategies of their colleagues, and to realize that they are not unique or alone when confronted with such problems.
	Coping with the stress of medical practice information and resources on this page will provide some comfort and assistance to physicians experiencing difficult times in their career. To learn more about it follow the link below:
