A long, but interesting article that begs the question, is empathy a prerequisite for doctors, and something they can be trained? This is of particular interest to me because my doctor is one who lacks empathy, at least to some degree.
An example is that twice now, she has told me, "Yes. You probably have cancer." It was said in a cavalier style. Flat, straight forward way. And, I believe she's wrong, but what a thing to say, shortly before, "Goodbye. I'll call in your prescription."
On topic, what do you think about doctors having to pass an "Empathy Test" when in medical school?
