Ed Hessler

Today's poem is by Dr. Glenn Colquhoun, a general practitioner and writer (poet and children's books) who lives in New Zealand.

The poem links to a blog by Helen Lowe, where there is information about him and comments about the poem. I was reminded of two sides of medical practice: listening to and talking with the patient to gain shared understandings.
