Abstract:
Today, physicians in general and neurosurgeons in particular practice in an era of fundamental change in Medicine from a profession to an industry. This change has produced erosion in the very personal physician-patient relationship. "The Morning Visit" is a poem written by Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr., M.D., a 19th century physician, poet, and humanist. Although this beautiful poem was written approximately 150 years ago, it seems contemporarily relevant with its plea for the resurrection of the human touch in the behavior of physicians. It is in this spirit that this poem is shared with the readers of Neurosurgery.
