“Some people say doctors should keep their professional lives separate from their personal lives. Whoever says so either never practiced medicine or forgets what it’s like. Doctors don’t live two separate lives. It all comes together, whether we think that’s a good idea or not.”

“The word doctor is derived from the Latin root docere—to teach—but, in my experience so far, the patients had taught the doctor at least as much as the doctor taught them.”

“How much harm patients experience as a result of these “doctor discontinuities” is poorly understood, but there can be no doubt that they add redundancy, expense, and “occasion for error” to our health care system.”
