Customer Reviews
Elegant and Interesting
Just discovered this podcast and find it a delight. The patient-practitioner relationship is a sacred one, yet typically private. These brief stories about exceptional care are heartwarming and highlight the exquisite art of medicine made memorable by the practitioner’s ability to elevate developing a compassionate relationship to the same level of importance they manage the complex presenting health concern. Kudos to all involved.
A prescription for success
These podcasts are beautifully composed and are always a bright moment in my day. The stories are so important for both patients and healthcare providers to hear in a time when healthcare feels broken. The hosts should be so proud of this work.
