Summary
Pediatric brain surgeon Dr. Alan R. Cohen has performed thousands of procedures over 40 years — and says the most powerful tool he's ever used isn't in the OR. In this episode, Dr. Cohen makes the case that kindness, empathy, and genuine human presence are irreplaceable in medicine. Through moving stories of young patients and their families, he explores how compassion bridges the gap technology creates between doctor and patient — and why caring is an art that transcends science. A must-listen for healthcare professionals, caregivers, and anyone who believes healing is about more than a diagnosis. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 📖 Get Dr. Cohen's book Comfort Always and explore his work: 🔗 dralanrcohen.com/publications Connect with Dr. Alan R.
