Mona Masood, DO and Nicole Washington, MD are psychiatrists who have long focused on physician wellness, founding resources to destigmatize and improve physician mental health. In 2020, Masood developed the Physician Support Line, a peer-to-peer network of volunteer psychiatrists offering free and confidential support to medical students and physicians. The line is available from 8 AM to midnight (ET) Monday through Friday. For physicians who need ongoing mental health care, Washington created Physician Mental Health, a directory of psychiatrists treating physicians.
