The Outsider Narrative is going to be the first essay you’ll face in your narrative medicine experience. This essay is a great way to share YOUR story. What makes you who you are? What are the challenges you’ve faced that made you into the person you are today?
When we’re practicing medicine, every single person has a story that may be similar or different to yours. Either way, it’s our responsibility to understand this person as more than just a patient and really take their story into account. This will make all of us better doctors with patients who feel close to us and trust us with their personal health.
