Medical culture is filled with impossible ideals: the resident expected to work a 28-hour shift without complaint or error; the surgeon with the steel bladder; the doctor with perfect bedside manner; the student with all the answers. How should a doctor look, act, think, speak, dress, feel? What should they value?
In this episode, we explore the concept of "The Ideal Doctor." Where do these "ideals" come from? How are they communicated? And what do they have to do with shame?
