Learning Trust: It is vital that one feels safe enough to share the very depth of their life and story with a physician. If you share this deep important part of your life and you are mistreated then you find a better doctor. Most doctors want to know the whole story and have no reason to judge. The goal in being a physician is to offer help, a listening ear is vital to that part of our job.
