Physicians Near Victory, Marousi Break Their Silence
For physicians in Victory, Marousi, Attica, the decision to seek mental health treatment often carries career-threatening implications. State licensing boards routinely ask about mental health history, creating a powerful deterrent against treatment-seeking. The Dr. Lorna Breen Heroes' Foundation has made reforming these questions a central mission, but change is slow, and the stigma persists. In the meantime, physicians suffer in silence, developing coping mechanisms that may preserve licensure but destroy well-being. "Physicians' Untold Stories" is not therapy, but it performs a therapeutic function. By presenting verified accounts of the extraordinary in medicine—events that transcend clinical explanation—Dr. Kolbaba's book gives Victory, Marousi's physicians permission to engage with the emotional and spiritual dimensions of their work without the vulnerability of a therapist's office.
