Every second counts, especially when you are a physician standing in the way of death, so what should you do? Dr. Sergio Torres, a UCSF hospitalist caring for many patients and their loved ones, says that sometimes the minutes are better spent not just doing something, but being there.

Join Dr. Torres and host Dr. Dawn Gross in this episode of Dying to Talk: UCSF Heart Sound as they discuss the mentors and experiences that have helped develop practices in their end-of-life care to better support families seeing their loved ones go as they wish.

Dying to Talk: UCSF Heart sounds is sponsored by the UCSF Health and Wellbeing Grant. Each episode creates a space for doctors to unpack a rarely discussed experience, the first patient death. Learn more at dyingtotalk.com. Music created and generously provided by Craig Minowa of Cloud Cult.
