Building Empathy

An essay in JAMA's A Piece of My Mind

I can’t post the full text here due to copyright. This is a partial screenshot of the article’s introduction, and you can link to JAMA’s full text (you may need to log in through your academic institution if you do not already have a JAMA subscription).

It’s an essay about how my experience as a patient has changed my empathy as a physician, and how I understand “difficult” patients and families in the ICU.
