Storytelling in Medicine: In the Middle of the Night







Today we had a very special Medicine Grand Rounds at VCU Medical Center-where we explored storytelling and narrative in medicine.  

The four invited storytellers included Dr. Megan Lemay, Dr. Pablo Bedoya, Dr. Sam Powell and Dr. Richard Wenzel.

Each shared their experience through patient centered narratives, highlighting important humanistic insights and personal growth. Masterfully done. 

Similar topics explored through medical narratives, reflective writing and art can be found in our Medical Literary Messenger magazine, edited by Dr. Lemay and me.  All content is open access and fully downloadable.
