Unfortunately, due to the flu, I could not attend the meeting this afternoon. But I found it very interesting to read the content and extremely important topic. The professor did not realize that, even for the first year we can make a difference. There are lessons in which we are all in silence and stare at the professor almost open-mouthed (eg. Gulisano professor of anatomy, it seems an actor on stage, takes us completely) and yet others at which chatter or worse, we study other materials. I think the signal that hits us the lesson we can see from a particular glaring: recorders. At the beginning of a lesson they almost always turn on, but he feels in the classroom a noisy wave of "Click" when we begin to feel bored and do not even need to waste the battery of the recorder. I'm not saying that the professor did not love their subject, but perhaps, as it was written in the text, the problem is that they do not know how to communicate, how to engage. The role of professor of medicine is even more important because not only have to teach to cure the disease, but also the patient. Their behavior will train the doctors of tomorrow and need to be aware of their responsibilities, particularly with the challenges of today and the temptation to fall prey to a house farmacetica or remunerative work without principles. Then there is the appearance of new technologies that require a doctor who will always have to innovate, develop and agree to withdraw some of its considerations. A mentor is one who has to enable the future physician to act well in front of certain choices. I conclude with an excerpt from my favorite show, the brother of a trainee is directed to the head and mentor of the latter:
Dan: "Hey, Dr. Cox .. let me say what I think. She likes to be considered an idol to these guys, it's Johnny and family all knew that Johnny was going to make it. It was thoughtful, very intelligent, being a doctor was the only thing that interested him in the world. Yet you have found a way to lessen his dignity to turn it into a cynic who hates his job. Dr. Cox, Johnny will never respect me, ever, but hanging on his every word. So I ask you, indeed I say, taking seriously THIS RESPONSIBILITY 'DOES NOT MAKE THE BASTARD, otherwise if will do with me. "
