As a general pediatrician, I have an opportunity to bring an Integrative approach to my clinical practice, including bringing in a whole person approach to health and well-being with an understanding that many factors influence health including the mind, body, spirit and community. As an educator, I think it is important to teach trainees to intentionally recognize the healing potential of the relationship between patient/family and clinician as a way to connect and share the humanism that is infused in our practice of medicine.
