GW Medical school panel on Spirituality & Medicine





 In this wonderful forum hosted by the Muslim medical student Association, the three of us got to discuss issues on spirituality and medicine.

The overall questions were, what is spirituality, what is its role in our personal lives, and what is its role in the lives of our doctor-patient interaction?

There were a few major things I think that I wanted to drive home. First, is that spirituality is a key part of patient care regardless of how we personally feel about it.This is the simple fact based on evidence-based medicine that takes into account thousands of scholarly article articles that study this issue.
