Over the last several years there has been mounting evidence that loneliness and social isolation play an important role in health and wellness. This includes in the medical profession. Concerns of loneliness and social isolation can easily be overshadowed by more established health risk concerns of smoking, obesity, and substance use. This talk will look at the current evidence, statistics and impact of loneliness/social isolation while offering some practical recommendations on how to combat it in ourselves and our patients.
