A short excerpt from a YouTube video by Dr. Joshua John-Ram Schacter titled "Listen To Your Pain: A Doctor's Approach To Healing." In this passage Dr. Schacter emphasizes the importance of taking time to listen to patients' stories, diagnosing the root causes of their pain, and contrasts brief typical appointments with a more patient-centered, time-invested approach to healing.

Your pain has a story, and it's time somebody listened to you. My favorite thing to do in my office is to sit and listen to patients tell their story. So often they've been ignored. So often they've only got to spend 10 minutes with their doctor and haven't ever really gotten to the bottom of what's causing their pain. So really taking time with you, spending time getting to the root cause of your pain is what's going to make a huge difference.
