Neurosurgeons leaving practice

Just curious what the impetus seems to be. For example, one of the stanford alumni (Achrol) practiced for about 6 years and is now CMO at some MRI focused ultrasound company.

One of the vandy faculty and her husband both retired in their early 40s. Burnout, loss of job satisfaction, career trajectory and wanting more family time are common factors
