Wisdom of a psychiatric career with Dr. Art Lazarus

Join Dr. Tudor Francu in a deeply reflective and insightful conversation with Dr. Art Lazarus, a physician, academic, pharma executive, and widely published writer. Dr. Lazarus opens up about his path in psychiatry, early career struggles, personal evolution, and how the “why” in medicine often comes down to relationships, love, work, and — not to be forgotten — play.

Dr. Lazarus shares candid moments about career “earthquakes,” like missing medical school acceptance on the first try and a haunting clinical experience that shifted his direction away from clinical psychiatry and toward population health. He discusses the value of narrative medicine, the emotional toll of medical practice, and why speaking out — especially for oneself — is a critical act of self-preservation.

Whether you're early in your medical career or reflecting on decades of service, this conversation will resonate on a human level. Dr. Lazarus also shares actionable wisdom for maintaining mental health and navigating career transitions with intention and compassion.
