A University of Guelph study examined the impact the pandemic had on medical professionals. 

Dr. Basem Gohar [1], a clinical psychologist and professor in the Ontario Veterinary College, led the team, which included Liam Ishaky, a master of public health student, and Dr. Myuri Sivanthan [2], a post-doctoral fellow. The team wanted to examine the pandemic's impact on the mental health of medical lab professionals and physical and occupational therapists. 

In a digital search, researchers looked at almost 9,000 articles. They removed any duplicate articles and then qualitatively assessed 72 studies in detail. Sixteen of these studies met the criteria for the review.  

The findings showed that all occupational groups experienced negative mental health outcomes, such as burnout, depression, and anxiety.
