On Becoming a Healer: The Journey from Patient Care to Caring about Your Patients by Saul J. Weiner
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 799 KB
Overview: Medical students and physicians-in-training embark on a long journey that, although steeped in scientific learning and technical skill building, includes little guidance on the emotional and interpersonal dimensions of becoming a healer. Written for anyone in the health care community who hopes to grow emotionally and cognitively in the way they interact with patients, On Becoming a Healer explains how to foster doctor-patient relationships that are mutually nourishing.
Dr. Saul J. Weiner, an internist and a pediatrician for over two decades, argues that joy in medicine requires more than idealistic aspirations—it demands a capacity to see past the “otherness” that separates the well from the sick, the professional in a white coat from the disheveled patient in a hospital gown. Weiner scrutinizes the medical school indoctrination process and explains how it molds the physician’s mindset into that of a task completer rather than a thoughtful professional. Taking a personal approach, Weiner describes his own journey to becoming a nationally renowned physician-educator while offering concrete advice on how to take stock of your current development as a physician, how to openly and fully engage with patients, and how to establish clear boundaries that help defuse emotionally charged situations.
