3. After Mrs. Drucker died, what did Goldman experience emotionally? Do you think many people experience the emotions that he went through?

4. As you continued to listen to Goldman’s talk, were you surprised to hear about how similar situations (to Mrs. Drucker’s) continued to happen again and again throughout his career? Does knowing this change your opinion of him as a doctor?

5. Goldman proclaims that there are two types of doctors in this system that promote a denial of mistakes. Explain what he means by this and the issue with it.

3. He experienced for the first time the unhealthy shame that exists in the culture of medicine, feeling lonely and isolated. This is due to the incredibly high standards society holds in our medical field, and a small mistake could lead to severe repercussions. Because we are human, many other doctors making mistakes have most likely felt the same after being the cause of a patient’s harm. It is never intentional, but because of their error, they caused the death, which leads to them experiencing these emotions.

4. I was not surprised whatsoever as doctors are never perfect and make mistakes. While this did make me more aware that errors are more common than people think in the medical field, it did not change my opinion on his capability as a doctor. These risks should be considered when visiting a doctor as all side effects to possible treatments and mistakes can happen.

5. In the medical system, there are two types of doctors, those who make mistakes and those who don’t, those who handle sleep deprivation and those who don’t, and those who get good results and those who don’t. This toxic system promotes denial of mistakes and refusing to take responsibility when an error is made. The main issue with all of this is that now society believes that it is completely normal for a doctor to be perfect every time, but this couldn’t be further from the truth. Doctors make mistakes like ordinary people, but the system supports those standards because their jobs are essential. This system is flawed because doctors are bound to make mistakes eventually, no matter how skilled they are.
