Join Scott Ellner, a general surgeon. We delve into a compelling story from a decade ago, where a medical error had profound consequences for both a patient and the surgeon involved. Discover the emotional toll on health care professionals, the importance of creating a just culture in health care institutions, and the significance of forgiveness and growth in the face of adversity.

Scott Ellner has been a general surgeon for over 20 years, and can be reached at PEAK Health.

He discusses the KevinMD article, “Humanism in health care: How to address patient harm.”

Our presenting sponsor is Nuance, a Microsoft company.
