ABSTRACT
Physician burnout is a major problem that has long been facing our healthcare system. The COVID-19 pandemic has unfortunately deepened this problem and shed the light on the multiple structural shortcomings of our healthcare system that need immediate attention. Demoralization is one of the core features of "physician burnout," which results from a breakdown of genuine physician-patient interaction. A healthcare system that embraces cultural humility, where we find ourselves rewarded for supporting, uplifting, and respecting our patients' diverse voices could pave the way for battling burnout. Unlike cultural competency, which suggests that one should know everything about another's culture (an unfeasible task), cultural humility is a continuum of self-reflection and critique that aims to foster a deep connection between the physician and patient; a connection that sits at the core of the humanistic and multicultural experience of medicine.
