Description

Attending Medicine, Mindfulness, and Humanity is a groundbreaking exploration of how doctors approach their work with patients. Drawing on his clinical experiences and current research, Dr. Epstein identifies the qualities and habits that distinguish master clinicians from those who are merely competent.

The secret to effective care, he learned, is mindfulness. By taking time to pay attention to patients, doctors can lead to better outcomes on both sides of the stethoscope. This book offers a concise guide to the value of mindfulness and how it can be acquired by anyone.

With compassion and intelligence, Dr. Epstein shows how clinicians can grow their capacity to provide high-quality care in a healthcare system that often prioritizes the bottom line over patient well-being.
