There is limited data on the general health of primary care physicians (PCPs). We aimed to assess the physical and psychological health of Swiss PCPs. We selected a random sample of 1000 PCPs in Western Switzerland. They were asked about their self-rated health status, all medical conditions experienced in the past five years, and the number of days they were hospitalized and off work in 2019. They were also asked whether they had their own general practitioner (GP) and seen a psychiatrist/psychologist in the past 12 months. A total of 503 PCPs were included in the study (women = 51%, GPs = 67%, pediatricians = 19%, gynecologists = 14%). Ninety-four percent considered themselves in good or very good health. In the past five years, PCPs suffered mostly from depression/anxiety (21%), burnout (21%), dyslipidemia (19%) and hypertension (17%). Male and older PCPs had more often cardiovascular disorders, younger PCPs and GPs had more often psychiatric disorders. They were 9% to have been hospitalized (15% for PCPs over 60) and 20% to have been off work (32% for PCPs under 45). Only 47% had their own GP (37% for GPs). They were 16% (mostly female and younger PCPs) to have consulted a psychiatrist/psychologist. In conclusion, although PCPs considered themselves to be in good health, a substantial proportion suffered from a medical condition, mainly psychiatric (depression or burnout) and/or cardiovascular disorders, or were recently hospitalized or off work. Only half had a GP for themselves. These results may be useful for implementing specific health strategies targeting PCPs.
