2020/09/21

"American medicine has always been riven by internal rivalries. … The result is a culture that does not always prioritize kindness in interactions between health care providers. This has thankfully not been my experience during my reassignment … The COVID-19 outbreak will prove to be a seminal moment in the development of an entire generation of physicians-in-training. I hope that the bonds we form at the frontlines prove to be permanent." Resident Kunal Sindhu (@sindhu_kunal) reflects on his

The COVID-19 Curriculum

"The COVID-19 curriculum has also taught me that being a doctor isn’t only about giving a perfect presentation, choosing the right antibiotic, or making the right diagnosis.

It Hurts Whether You Fail or Not

2020/08/24

"Failure is an intense experience for health care professionals. Even in most cases when the patient experiences no lasting harm, the professional who failed will suffer. There is no getting used to this pain. We cannot prepare for it, and often we feel alone in working through it."

"I would never have learned that this SP was as nervous as me had I not taken his pulse. ...

"But the boys were uninterested in the degrees and accolades I possessed. They paid far closer attention to how I interacted with them. ...

Checking the Boxes

"I turned around to perform a different kind of survey—one that had no checklist because it was never really complete. ... For the first time, I appreciated his life, not his illness or the data we tracked along with it." Dr. Spencer Keil remembers a mentor who reminded him that caring for patients is about more than checking boxes. It's about getting to know a patient as a person outside a diagnosis.

"Every clinician can remember his or her first real code as a singular event, but often unspoken is how these experiences chip away at the body, mind, and soul of even the most steadfast of people. Piece by piece, the mosaic of a fledgling medical student builds, cracks, and rebuilds with the ever-present risk of shattering altogether in the crucible."

"In the classroom, if I had a question, I would ask it. 'There are no dumb questions,' we were told. On the wards, I felt as if that standard no longer applied. I was fearful both that my questions would slow or inhibit patient care and that I would be considered ignorant for my curiosity."

"I know I’m not the only one who feels that I can’t step away. Studies of physicians’ health and wellness are at the forefront of research these days. As physicians, our vow and purpose embolden our drive to keep going, to do more, and, at times, to neglect our own health.
