Laika Posted April 24, 2012 Report Share Posted April 24, 2012 Interesting article regarding longitudinal exposure to the same patient during clerkship: http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/04/19/reinventing-the-third-year-medical-student/ As with other NYT articles, the comments at the end are just as interesting as the article itself.

Jochi1543 Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 It'd be nice, for sure, especially now that I'm on surgery and if I do have patient contact while they are awake, it lasts approximately 20 seconds. I was just thinking about it the other day....today, in fact, as we did a breast cancer surgery and I really wished I had known more about the patient and how she was dealing with her diagnosis.
