how to win friends and influence people...

john and i at hotel marshyangdi in kathmandu, nepal

physician, as a whole, are wonderful people.  that said, they often are a bit arrogant for my taste.  this is not the case in HRA land.  everyone is so humble and kind, which has allowed the group to become quite comfortable with each other very quickly.


it is one thing to be comfortable with a group of people, and it’s another thing to call each other friends.  physicians have an easy solution for this dilemma.  that is, they share really personal information with strangers/new acquaintances that would otherwise be considered inappropriate.  personal insight into topics such as diarrhea, vomiting, constipation, etc. are common place when you are among physicians, and nothing brings people together like swapping diarrhea stories. :)

i must say, the HRA physicians are my kind of doctors…and my kind of friends.
