The work of a physician evokes a complex myriad of emotions. Sadness, grief, frustration, joy, happiness – these are only a few of the emotions experienced. As we connect with patients and hear their stories, their experiences become intertwined with our own. Here is a compilation of stories in medicine from our resident physicians.
