AMNews: March 24/31, 2008. Students lose empathy for patients during medical school ... American Medical News

1- It only takes a year to start draining empathy from future physicians.


2-Scores decreased again after the third year in school, when students finished their first year of clinical rotations.


3-"We thought their having contact with patients and physician mentors would help, but it didn't"

4-Teaching physicians likely were rushed, (someone just discover the warm water)and students may not have received as much bedside teaching or mentoring as they expected.

5- Dr. Frankel said. "We start with students who are very caring but have no diagnostic skills and end up with physicians with great diagnostics skill but who don't care."
