Published in the Journal of the American College of Surgeons, the following study examined how surgeons in dual-physician relationships differ from other partnered surgeons in their demographics, practice characteristics, family lives, distress, and job satisfaction. Members of the American College of Surgeons were asked to complete a survey that included questions on burnout, work−home conflict, and career satisfaction. The study found that surgeons in dual-physician relationships appear to experience greater challenges balancing personal and professional life than surgeons whose domestic partner is a working nonphysician or whose domestic partner stays at home.
