How I Built My Personal, Patient-Centered Health Care Team: Instead of Doctors, I Started With Students

  • Richard Wassersug

ABSTRACT

As a patient with cancer, I witnessed how beneficial it was to be treated by a multidisciplinary health care team. I realized I already had my own team, in a sense. That is because I had treated my research students as colleagues from the get-go, and I did not abandon them when they graduated and moved on.
