Gellman seemed reasonable enough. He had fasionably long hair and a mustache. He wore cords. All
of this put Paul at ease, for he had feared that Gellman might be one of those formidably professors in long
white coats. Gellman had a wafer thin bellboy clipped to his shirt pocket. Paul saw this for the status symbol it
was. He had already noticed that in the hierarchy of the medical pecking order, less is more. The interns
trudged around with big bellboys sagging from their belts, pockets laden with pamphlets and examining
equipment. Residents often dressed in street clothes and usually carried only a stethoscope stuck in their hip
pocket. Attendings, like Dr.Gellmam, wore no equipment at all, except for the wafer thin bellboy.
" I've got a great case for you, " Dr. Gellman said to Paul. " Leukemia. Acute lymphoblastic leukemia. "
They agreed that for this first interview, the other students would go off and interview their patients on their
own. This morning Gellman would go with Paul. In the coming weeks he would rotate through to observe the
other students.
" Her name is Mrs. Clark, " Dr. Gellman added, almost as an afterthought.
He grabbed a chart from the rack in the nurses station and led Paul in to see his first patient. Paul ran
through in his mind the steps he had been lectured about the day before. Establish rapport. Make eye contact.
Ask simple questions. Identify yourself to the patient. But somehow, in spite of himself, all of these
considerations were far from his mind when he first laid eyes on Mrs. Clark. |
