This book assembles many of the foremost writers and

clinicians in the field of team-based primary care to share their own

relational reflections. It features narratives from fields such as

integrated behavioral health, integrated primary care, primary care

behavioral health, medical family therapy, health psychology, primary care

psychology, and clinical social work. The key focus of the chapters are the

relationships that are formed during primary care delivery. The book is

organized into six core chapters: Family of Origin, Teachers and Mentors, Our

Patients and Ourselves, Colleagues and Collaborators, Clinician as Patient,

and Death and Loss. Each chapter contains a variety of styles and formats of

narrative medicine, including personal reflections, story-telling, and

poetry.

Connections

in the Clinic will be of interest to a wide audience of

clinicians and educators dedicated to a reflective or story-telling approach

to healing.

Reviews for Connections in the Clinic: Relational Narratives from Team-Based Primary Care

“For the new-to-the-profession student or resident, the book serves as a preview and road map to anticipated experiences and emotions. For the seasoned provider, the narratives undoubtedly will trigger memories of similar personal and professional experiences. … If storytelling encourages educators to bring the humanity into the teaching of medicine, does it not also remind us of our own humanity and inherent vulnerabilities? Connections in the Clinic succeeds in both.” (Franklin Berkey, Family Medicine, Vol. 55 (4), 2023)
