He's trying to maintain a level and Clear Head by disengaging from emotion. It would be too easy for him to drag himself down dealing with all the illnesses he sees on a Regular Basis. He's basically trying to protect himself from the stress.
That makes so much sense. Thanks so much
Lawyers are horrible in the USA. Probably some hospital guidelines
Oh so he doesn’t want the patient to be emotional over it or discuss emotions in case of a lawsuit over what? Thanks
And doctors are taught not to get overly involved in their patients life. The doctor job is to make clinical medical diagnosis and that is what he did. He did not do anything wrong and in today's world if you try to do anything good... that is not typical or outside of protocol then something happens later. It is sad but it is how it is these days.
Makes so much sense! Thanks
Sure. You are very welcomed. Good luck with it all.
