Physician Well-Being and Professional Fulfillment Activities

Welcome! There are many well-being and professional fulfillment activities to choose from this year at the ACP Internal Medicine Meeting 2023. Design an experience best suited to your well-being and professional fulfillment interests and needs.

We encourage you to browse the scientific programs, non-ticketed micro sessions at the Clinical Skills Center and reconnect with colleagues at the Well-being Fun Zone. Session topics range from deepening your understanding of the critical role of well-being and professional fulfillment for systems, organizations, teams, and individuals, opportunities to take a break and participate in fun well-being activities, as well as the chance for you to gain new skills and grow your well-being toolkit for yourself or to teach others.

For more well-being and professional fulfillment resources visit acponline.org/wellbeing.
