Creating rapport with patients

A master class.

Dying (and not aware of it) patient: "Dr. Saul, I hope that next time I see you it's for a round of golf."

Dr. Saul: "I sure hope not, cause the only place you're playing golf in the near future will be in heaven."

Patient: What?

Dr. Saul: Well, remember those tests we did last week? You have cancer! One of the cancer docs will be around to talk to you about it later. Bye."


Yes, for real.
