The COVID-19 pandemic has forced family medicine out of the office and into technology-driven mediums. Aside from difficulties in making diagnoses and triaging illness severity over the phone, there is something being lost. It’s something intangible but enriching for both physicians and patients, and it’s something meaningful to the art of medicine that can only come from meeting with another person face to face.

Image de la page couverture

La pandémie de COVID-19 a expulsé la médecine familiale des cliniques pour la faire entrer dans les médiums technologiques. En plus des difficultés de poser au téléphone des diagnostics et de faire le tri des maladies en fonction de leur gravité, quelque chose a disparu. C’est quelque chose d’intangible, mais enrichissant, autant pour les médecins que pour les patients, et c’est quelque chose de significatif pour l’art de la médecine qui n’émane que de la rencontre face à face d’une autre personne.

Artiste

Dr Eli Xavier Bator, Uxbridge, Ont, Plague Doctor (Self-Portrait), peinture num&eactue;rique
