An “imperfect” patient

In medicine, experience is not merely about repeating clinical practices or perfecting a technical exercise, detached from unforeseen challenges. Being an expert means embracing the disruptive aspects that break the monotony and confront us with the uniqueness of each patient. The experience of care is an encounter with the patient’s unrepeatable story, an immersion into the narrative of their life. The medical approach thus becomes a dialogue with the individuality of the patient, transforming each therapeutic act into a unique event, enriched by the integration of technical skills and human understanding.
