Words of Wisdom for Graduates of Medical School

Here's one example from the chapter featuring Darold Treffert, MD, which offers words of wisdom for graduates, in the form of an intriguing story. Steve integrates these anecdotes into his presentations using state-of-the-art audio files from the orginal physician interviews so you hear directly from the story-teller.

Darold Treffert, MD, offers words of wisdom for graduates of every kind

A patient sees his doctor because he can no longer hear. After rigorous examination costing upwards of $10,000, the tests reveal nothing abnormal.
Since everything checked out from a physical standpoint, he was referred to a psychiatrist. When the patient arrived for that consultation, the doctor got out a piece of paper and wrote out: “Why can’t you hear?” (Remember, he couldn’t ask him verbally because the patient couldn’t hear).

The patient responded, “Because I don’t have ears.”

The man had hallucinated away his ears. With this revelation, health care was in a position to help him.

But was it necessary to spend $10,000 on tests to do it? Couldn’t the primary care doctors have asked him why he couldn’t hear without running a blizzard of tests?

The lesson for doctors from this health care motivational speaker is to always ask the patient what the problem is because he or she will often explain what it is and what can be done about it! This is the kind of story that is sprinkled throughout the presentation, except Steve lets the doctors tell you their stories themselves! Each was recorded for White Coat Wisdom and Steve integrates brief audio excerpts from the book during his presentation. These are words of wisdom for graduates of any school, medical or otherwise.
