In case you missed it -- Risa Morimoto, host of Modern Aging- Health and Wellness Over 50 in discussion with Dr. Beth Huezey, an academic hospitalist at Norwalk Community Hospital where she teaches students and residents narrative medicine.Dr.
Huezey's first career was in the publishing world, until she decided to pursue her interest in medicine. Huezey received her medical degree from Columbia University and did her resident training at Yale.

Combining her love for both the humanities
and medicine, Dr Huezey runs essential narrative medicine (NM) programming to better help doctors listen, observe and hear what patients are really saying and what they may not be saying -- Using NM techniques, Heuzey's work helps prepare more attentive
doctors who allow patients improved opportunities for positive medical experiences.

She had me at “…an antidote to burnout.” The tenor of how she practices her commitment to narrative medicine is inspiring. I also appreciate that she recognizes it’s needed now more than ever, particularly for populations comfortable with oral storytelling.
