Medicine- the art of the expert performer
What clinicians can learn from the performing arts
In the hands of an expert, clinical practice appears effortless. Each patient feels safe and cared for while their problem is explored, diagnosed and resolved by a wise and compassionate clinician. Yet this apparent simplicity requires decades of thoughtful work and preparation.
In this lecture I link my own experience as a surgeon, a family physician and a clinical educator with insights I have gained through collaborating with musicians, dancers, actors, puppeteers and close-up magicians. I outline my research into what it means to become expert and show how William Osler鈥檚 legacy continues to resonate with all of us today.
