Fundamental to the practice of medicine is human connection. Research shows that making meaningful connections with a patient can lead to greater empathy followed by care rooted in compassion. Furthermore, physicians scoring high on compassion scales provide better patient care, achieve better patient outcomes, experience a greater personal sense of well-being, and save money for the healthcare system. Compassionate patient care has always been the core mission of healthcare, but now, with well-designed scientific studies, it is also an emerging evidence-based medical practice.
