"There is a side to medicine that is too often overlooked, especially in the surgical field. Most surgeons know their patients have worries, even fear, before a procedure. As doctors, we need to feel for our patients and care for them as whole human beings, because they are so much more than just injured parts. And they deserve our compassion."
