The best patient stories?
These are the ones that find you, especially in the flow of a clinic visit.

What IS that phenomenon called when kids get freaked out and will not allow a peep inside their pie hole?
Is this #tomophobia, fear of medical procedures?
Or #scopophobia, fear of being stared at?
May be both...but we in #pediatrics see it a lot
Playful distraction helps. #pedsky #graphicmedicine

#Kids get it. The model of how we take #patient histories by having redundant queries about #meds or past #Illness can be maddening. Perhaps we could use the time better (without retracing our steps). #graphicmedicine
