An ingenious new approach to educating doctors. An exploration of “how physicians can see patients better.”Nussbaum, chief education officer at Denver Health and author of The Finest Traditions of My Calling, agrees that the 19th-century introduction of science into medical education was an admirable revolution that converted medicine to a profession based on human physiology rather than folk beliefs.

As a parent who is also a physician, I am accustomed to special requests from my children’s schools. Over the years, I have received welcome requests to judge science fairs critically and to introduce sex ed clinically. Lately, the schools have made a new request that feels unwelcomely like my clinical work: to wait out another school shooting. Our neighborhood high school was locked down again recently.
