How Do Physicians Relax?

Most physicians work 40 to 60 hours each week, and a quarter work 60 to more than 80 hours weekly. But what do physicians enjoy doing outside of practicing medicine?

According to the "2014 Work/Life Profiles of Today's U.S. Physicians" report by AMA Insurance, physicians of all ages enjoy staying active. The top activities are biking, running or jogging and camping or hiking.

Other top hobbies physicians participate in regularly include:

•    Avid book reading
•    Gardening
•    Home workshop
•    Home decorating
•    Yoga and Pilates
•    Playing a musical instrument
 
 The report is based off a survey of nearly 5,000 physicians ages 30 to 69.
