When I was a first year attending, I told an MA that since a pt was > 15min late that I wouldn’t see them as that’s how I’d seen other senior docs practice.
A colleague who witnessed said, “Do you
KNOW the story about what that pt had to go through to get here today?”
I ended up seeing them.
They’d driven 80 miles of rural 2-lane highway to get to me.
Still one of my best “patient friends” to this day.
My colleague that helped me in preventing my mistake has passed away.
I love him for correcting me/teaching me with kindness to this day
