I've held the hands of my patients. I've been the one whose hand has been held. I've received trust and given trust, and the therapeutic decisions my patients and I reach were not subject to the interdiction of a third party. I do not want to have my life's role as a physician and surgeon, my joy in the process usurped by an administocracy. As a patient, I do not want to hold hands with a robot and confide my health problems to a faceless entity. As a doctor, a patient, and a person, I reject the currently shattered doctor-patient relationships. Health care is upside down. Let us set it right.
Henry Buchwald is a surgeon.
