A Doctor’s Hidden Addiction and the Wake-Up Call That Changed Everything (Ft. Dr. Brett Cordes)

Burnout doesn’t always look like exhaustion—it can start as boredom, irritability, or just not caring anymore. In this deeply personal episode of The Interesting MD, Dr. Rob Beck talks with Dr. Brett Cordes, aka The Burnout Doc, an ENT surgeon who shares his raw and honest story of falling into—and recovering from—burnout and opiate addiction. Dr. Cordes opens up about the slow creep of professional dissatisfaction, how it led to substance use, and the moment everything changed with an intervention from his peers and the medical board. They also explore what burnout really looks like for doctors, why it’s so often missed or ignored, and how systems and culture feed the crisis. Now a physician coach, Dr. Cordes offers practical advice and encouragement to medical professionals feeling stuck, lost, or on the edge. If you’ve ever questioned your love for medicine or felt like you’re just “going through the motions,” this episode is a must-listen. 📍 For support or to connect with Dr. Cordes, visit https://theburnoutdoc.com/ Chapters: 00:00 INTRO 05:45 Academic Excellence in Baton Rouge 09:18 First Encounter with Opiates 12:50 Full Circle: Healing and Practice 14:40 Unexpected Friday Routine Change 18:17 "Finding Your Way Back" 20:27 Uncovering Personal Truths 24:29 Personal Struggles and Career Shifts 28:08 Private Practice Reflections 30:06 COVID Consequences: Trust Erosion 33:53 Burnout and Self-Worth Struggles 36:22 Physician Burnout: Causes and Consequences 39:49 Burnout vs. Financial Obligations 43:55 Canadian Healthcare: System and Moral Challenges 46:10 From Hard Work to Burnout 49:15 Mind Over Matter Therapy Approach 53:34 "Connect with InterestingMD Online" Podcast Link https://theinterestingmd.podbean.com YouTube Link    / @interestingmd   Website Link https://www.interestingmd.com/ Have a content suggestion?
