Sorry Works !: "Forgiveness. Is there anything more difficult to do than ask for forgiveness? Is there anything more powerful to enable a healing process to begin than asking for forgiveness? Like many physicians, I have struggled with my imperfections in a world where perfection is expected – and imperfection is punished. Once we come to acknowledge the Alexander Pope quote (and the title of the first Institute of Medicine Report in 1999), “To Err is Human”, the next step is to remember that he also noted, “To Forgive, Divine”."
Saying sorry helps both doctors and patients heal !
Do you think that sometimes Doctors might be too flipant in their apologies that they loose meaning to there patients?
