23. A conversation with Dr. Ted Strange

Ted Strange, MD, chair of medicine at Staten Island University Hospital, published a Viewpoint article in JAMA emphasizing the importance of the human touch in medicine. He argues that while technology is a powerful tool, compassionate care improves patient outcomes and reduces physician burnout. In the latest episode of Talks with Talamini, Dr. Strange shares more about how the editorial came to be and why he encourages physicians to prioritize connection with patients.
