If I make a mistake I tell my patient and I apologize. If someone else makes a mistake, I also apologize if it’s me who finds the error.

I also tell my patients about myself. They know when I got married. They know I have a disabled daughter. We have a relationship. I think that if I’m doing things to their body, they have a right to know something about me.

The video was very good and I love that it included the caregivers. We’re all human, all struggling, patients and health care givers alike. One of our oncologists has colon cancer. He tells his patients. I think it’s made him a better doc.
