WHO ARE WE?
We are attending physicians across the University of California taking back control of our working conditions in a system where profitability has increasingly been prioritized over the needs of patients & the doctors who care for them.
We are organizing to advocate for the highest standards of care for our patients & reclaiming our power as physicians.
By joining forces with two SEIU local unions, CIR-SEIU & Doctors Council SEIU, we aim to transform the patient-doctor experience & create generational change by organizing the medical career path: from medical students, interns, residents & fellows, to attendings.
WHY ARE WE ORGANIZING?
We are fed up with a corporatized healthcare system that leaves us powerless, overworked, underpaid & disrespected, dictating our schedules and burdening us with administrative tasks while taking away our time from patients, research & teaching, resulting in physician burnout.
We want to save our profession, reclaiming our agency, respect & a seat at the table.
It’s time to set our own priorities and advocate for ourselves, protect our colleagues, & provide the best care possible.
We’re building a union by & for physicians!
