When a Patient Mistreats a Clinician
Op-Med is a collection of original articles contributed by Doximity members. It started with the usual request from a resident to check up on a patient and confirm his history. I introduced myself, and the patient and I talked about what brought him to the hospital: leg pain/edema and lymphadenopathy. As I was wrapping up the history, I began the physical exam: auscultating his heart and lungs as well as carefully examining his leg for signs of infection, extent of swelling, and lymphadenopathy.
N-of-One Clinical Trials: A Scientific Approach to Personalized Medicine for Patients with Rare Retinal Diseases
Op-Med is a collection of original articles contributed by Doximity members. Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a group of inherited retinal degenerative diseases with a prevalence of approximately 1:4000, affecting 2 million persons globally. RP is genetically heterogeneous (associated with >3000 mutations in ~100 genes). Currently, there are more than 50 retinal gene therapy, clinical trials, most of which are for relatively rare diseases such as RP.

Op-Med is a collection of original articles contributed by Doximity members. Throughout residency and fellowship, I was inspired by physicians who could diagnose pneumonia without an X-ray or who could spend just 45 minutes with a patient before uncovering a diagnosis that had stumped our team for days. Others could transform contentious goals of care conversations into moments of connection and healing. To me, they seemed like wizards.
