In the final installment of this series of ASPHOcast, ASPHO Well-Being Special Interest Group Chair Dr. Jonathan Fish and Vice Chair Dr. Adit Tal provide their perspectives on the larger physician wellness conversation. In reviewing previous episodes of ASPHOcast, they discuss the specific takeaways and recommendations as they relate to the Pediatric Hematology/Oncology field.

Dr. Jonathan Fish is Associate Professor of Pediatrics at the Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra / Northwell and serves as the Head of Stem Cell Transplantation and the Medical Director of the Survivors Facing Forward Program at Cohen Children’s Medical Center / Northwell Health. Dr. Adit Tal is Assistant Professor of Pediatric Hematology, Oncology, and Cellular Therapy at the Children’s Hospital at Montefiore (CHAM) and the Albert Einstein College of Medicine. She is the Assistant Program Director for the Pediatric hematology/oncology fellowship program, serves on the faculty well-being committee, and develops wellness programs for the pediatric fellowship programs at CHAM.

The mission of the ASPHO Well-Being Special Interest Group is to develop and maintain a community of practice with which to facilitate discussion, establish collaborative curriculums, and share approaches to addressing drivers of distress, thereby contributing to the well-being of ASPHO members. We encourage all ASPHO members to join the Well-Being SIG and contribute their experiences and ideas. More information can be found on the ASPHO website.
