For more than twenty years a dynamic group of doctors has on a voluntary basis been on call for their colleagues experiencing crisis reactions related to work and personal life. Consultancies are anonymous; only a few data are registered in order to gather insight into the reasons for seeking assistance. The majority of contacts now seem to be work-related stress, conflicts with colleagues, family problems, illness and abuse. Patient claims and a bad press are not as frequent as they used to be.
