Our conversation with USC Keck School of Medicine artist-in-residence Ted Meyer and IU IPE Director Dr. Barbara Maxwell continues as they explore what it means to truly listen in healthcare, and why it matters.
Through stories of patient experiences, student reflections, and Ted’s groundbreaking work at the intersection of art and medicine, this episode reveals the human side of healthcare that is often overlooked in checklists and clinical routines.
This episode unpacks how narrative medicine, emotional intelligence, and interprofessional collaboration can transform patient care, from routine procedures to life-altering memories. Whether you're a clinician, educator, or health professions student, this episode will challenge how you think about empathy, communication, and the legacy of care.
🩺 Topics include:
Why patients remember the how, not just the what
Using art to teach medical students about empathy and lived experience
The importance of “seven seconds of empathy” in clinical practice
What happens when we miss what patients are really saying
Burnout, humanity, and rebuilding healthcare through connection
