Vincent Rajkumar: The Human Touch is Important for Healing and Peace of Mind
Vincent Rajkumar, Professor of Medicine at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, shared a post on X:
“The relief I am able to provide my patients is often not the specific tests or the treatments I prescribe.
It’s the time spent explaining and reassuring. The human touch is important for healing and peace of mind. No computer can provide that.”
Vincent Rajkumar reflected on the healing impact of doctor-patient communication, emphasizing that time spent explaining and providing reassurance often delivers more comfort than tests or treatments.
