S7E7: Enhancing Patient Care Through Storytelling in Medicine
Every patient brings a unique narrative when they come into the doctor's office. Patients who feel heard, seen, and valued by their health care providers have better health outcomes and higher levels of satisfaction with their care.

Recognizing and valuing each patient’s story can lead to more empathetic and effective treatment.
In S7E7, Hạ and Mariam discuss the power of storytelling in medicine, fostering shared experiences and providing better patient care. By centering health care around patient stories, storytelling can shift the focus to patient-centered care and help bring back humanity in medicine. -
