In this narrative, Dr. Iris Gorfinkel grapples with the emotions behind the difficult message she has to deliver to her patient — a message she knows will not be well received.
Dr. Gorfinkel is a general practitioner, and a principal investigator and founder of Prime-Health Clinical Research in Toronto, Ont.
She wrote a Humanities Encounters article published in CMAJ called "You're no longer safe to drive."
