To foster meaningful connection and create an inclusive community that supports and champions the wellness of physician families during all stages of training, practice, retirement and widowhood.

Physician Families Play an Important Role
‍‍‍
Physicians support the health and well-being of our communities. And we, as the wives, husbands and partners in physician families, understand that physician health and well-being is a family affair and starts at home. Often, medicine, as an institution, does not recognize, include or support physician families as the important partners we are in this system. TFSL is committed to changing this by supporting physician families through connection, education, and advocacy.

When physician families are thriving and supported, the health and well-being of our physicians is strengthened; this results in exceptional, compassionate patient care being made both possible and sustainable. As communities and as healthcare consumers, we are all positively impacted when physicians and their families are healthy and thriving.

The Path to Change
‍
Through collaboration with community partners and stakeholders, TFSL is committed to championing the needs of physician families, throughout medical training and during the practice journey. By raising awareness at the institutional level, TFSL will reframe the narrative on physician wellness to include recognition and support for physician families.‍
