We meet with Ellie Qian, a medical student, to discuss the profound experiences that shape the journey to becoming a compassionate health care professional. Ellie shares a transformative encounter from her first year of medical school, where she practiced medical interviews with a standardized patient, Chris, who has stage 4 metastatic lung cancer, and his supportive partner, Jordan. This deeply human conversation about end-of-life care, love, and the power of silence offers invaluable insight into the nature of medicine.

Ellie Qian is a medical student.

She discusses the KevinMD article “Paying Homage to Humanity: Lessons from a Medical Encounter.”
