Adam, I am writing to let you know, I appreciate you and your thoughtfulness. Sharing your thoughtful documentation and reflection of patient encounters is a bonus for the SM community. Thank you.
Such a poignant story that shows the importance of tuned-in communication. I’ve thought about this when docs write “refused” or “denied” or “complained of…” in their notes in the EHR. Why not “declined” or “reported” - rather than making me sound like an obstinate teenager?
"how little feedback we doctors get on the care we deliver": the same is true of teachers. We hardly ever find out what our students learned -- or didn't -- from their interactions with us.
Agree. I am a retired middle school special ed teacher and have always felt it should be “in the contract” that each kid needs to check in with me every year forevermore. Occasionally someone does - but because of my own geographical moves and the fact that most people want to put middle school down the memory hole - it’s rare.
