What is the missing link in today’s medical care delivery?
Medical school training has historically relied on the biological sciences, and their application, for diagnosis and treatment, with technology an adjunct to care. Although many major medical schools now incorporate “doctoring” into their curriculum, traditional medical training lacked an emphasis on the psycho-social aspects of the doctor-patient relationship.
Join the “Art of the Heart: The Doctor-Patient Partnership” book discussion to explore the solution as author, Jay H. Kleiman, M.D., recounts the profound career moments that define the doctor-patient partnership, illuminating the path toward preventing physician burnout.
How do I get the book?

Book copies are available on Amazon for $10, in both paperback and Kindle versions (and free for students with Kindle Unlimited). If you need financial assistance purchasing the book, complete this GoogleForm by Tuesday, February 17 to have a copy provided for you.

What can I expect at the Book Discussion event?
A virtual Book Discussion will be held on Wednesday, March 11 from 5 - 6 PM with the author, Jay H. Kleiman, M.D., and his wife, Georgi. This will provide you the opportunity to directly engage with the author and his spouse to learn from their lived experiences. A set of discussion prompts and questions is available to view in advance; however, live questions from participants are highly encouraged.
