A patient gave me these on Tuesday. "These are for you." "Oh thank you, but why?" "The letter you wrote to the GP, it was brilliant. I felt listened to, understood. You connected all the dots and made it make sense".
She had been a brand new patient the week prior and I felt it necessary to include her GP in her treatment plan, so wrote a letter advocating for her and requesting tests. We're fortunate to have time with patients to listen to stories and do thorough examinations, and when needed, involve other medical professionals.
All in a day's work. What a wonderful job we have.
