摘要

我对老年医学的热情，是在我祖父位于印度班加罗尔维贾耶纳加尔的诊所里看到的富有同情心的护理所激发的。他治疗老年人的整体性、同理心的方法深刻地影响了我作为一名医生的实践。这本书探讨了我成为老年病专家的过程中的关键时刻，从我与祖父的病人的接触到运用他真诚倾听的方法。通过这个镜头，我审视了在现代医疗保健的约束下保持同理心的挑战和回报，同时强调了保持人际关系的重要性。

Lessons From a Grandfather's Care: A Journey Into Geriatric Medicine.

My passion for geriatric medicine was inspired by the compassionate care I witnessed in my grandfather's clinic in Vijayanagar, Bangalore, India. His integral, empathetic approach to treating older adults profoundly shaped my own practice as a physician. This reflection explores pivotal moments in my journey to becoming a geriatrician, from my encounters with my grandfather's patients to applying his methods of sincere listening. Through this lens, I examine the challenges and rewards of maintaining empathy within the constraints of modern health care, while emphasizing the importance of preserving human connection.
