Abstract: Medicine is often about what isn't said."Dr Rubino offered that line early in my training, and it returned to me during my first clinical rotation.I followed a family physician into an exam room to see an older woman scheduled for "fatigue."The note was brief.I expected a quick review of labs and medications.Instead, the physician simply sat.We waited.After a long silence, the woman whispered, "I haven't spoken to anyone in three days."
