So gutsy! As someone in Medicine I really appreciate that kind of honesty.

this man is on the forefront of change, and i am confident that there is no better man to lead it than Dr. Goldman 🔥

Excellent speech! Ah.....TGH- I know it well! I applaud you on your honesty! I am also surprised by your admitting of errors made! I NEVER thought, even hoped, that a Dr would ever “breach” the unspoken rule that I believe exists universally. That is: what we are taught to do + what “real life” teaches us in hospital settings are 2 different things. If we make a mistake, for some reason, we all, Dr’s + nurses, go through exactly what you described. We pray our pt’s do well + follow their, hopeful, recovery- then we breathe a sigh of relief, “Thank God”, + carry on- vowing to be more conscientious. All the best!

I'm impressed! Finally someone speaks truth! What courage!

Transparency in medicine has the same impact as repentance does on the soul. The standing ovation from your audience was the confirmation of the truth you shared !!!!!!

OMG it is all so true. It makes me work to be a better nurse. What it should really be is that the nurses who are there to support the patient should not point out mistakes after the fact and take credit- but say "hey I think I have something to contribute" often I saw something relevant it made a difference.

Great talk. Patients need to remember this too. We are all human and the whole system would work better if we all.remembered our fallability. Thanks Dr Goldman.

Somebody decided to make people watch this video in our Patient Safety class. It was recommended the video be less than 10 minutes. Thanks TEDx.

All healthcare professionals (medical, paramedical, and mental health care) need to watch this. If only the culture of shame would be lifted in these fields, I can't even begin to imagine the immense benefits to patients, physicians, and communities. Accountability and the admission of errors/uncertainties are not weaknesses; they are the cornerstones upon which a healthy community must be based. Dr. Goldman, thank you. This is exactly what is needed to re-inspire trust in our healthcare system.

Amazing honesty and from this a culture of improvement can take place if hand on heart every doctor thought like you.

From a french med student in 2021, thank you

Very honesty about his clincal practice

THANK YOU !!!

Thanks so much for your honesty, Dr. Goldman. Your point is that docs aren't gods, so why do we expect them to be? I haven't finished watching but I bet you'll share how you believe we need to change the system so that docs aren't so isolated in their work and that they have the support in the system needed to do better.

+Barb Elgin As a psychotherapist, I can tell you that the current system is broken in that insurance companies expect fee for service providers to do too much. They want to pay so little, providers have to do more to survive.

this is brilliant

Great Dr. Goldman. Definitely tweeting this out.

Dr. Brian Goldman, you can go to the head of the class. I hope you can help the medical culture to improve. Mistakes happen. They should not be covered up. Measures should be sought that prevent errors from happening. BTW: doctors in Canada cannot be sued, contrary to what doctors believe. The CMA and the CMPA crush victims of medical errors and abuse. This helps no one. Medicine needs quality control not coverups and gag orders.

Nice talk, so as a future physician especially in the age of AI when machines are minimising these errorr, what skills should i learn and master? Is it Medicine incoporated with Computer Science or ?

As a physician I would say that was interesting and perhaps refreshing and timely for lay persons to hear. On the other hand , while we all make mistakes, some of us make them more regularly than others. I am not aware of any of my team who have suffered such numerous and grave errors. I have found in medicine those physicians that struggle often migrate to administrative, consultative or in this case Radio, journalism or the internet. Good for him to go where his strengths lie.

Not true at all. As a physician myself, have to disagree that you are sadly misinformed. Or maybe you’re a consultant in your own silo and have low risk of “exposure”. In the ER, we such high volume, the pace is frantic and often time chaotic. Patients conditions can change. They can get better (or worse) and their disposition changes with time. They say the average ER doctor is named in a lawsuit once every 7 years and so you can be the BEST clinician, know the most insure things, yet it is just a matter of time before you are named or something happens, based on the sheer volume you see. We need to be able to talk about this, learn from our mistakes, and move forward.

Does anyone know how to treat never ending goosebumps? :O

Brutal.

I salute you

@1bigbucknut You know, you are the very essence of what he was talking about. You can't face your own mistakes, so you go on the attack. I don't believe that NOBODY in your team has make a serious mistake. Maybe you need to speak to them in a bit more compassionate manner than what your post suggests.

Isn't that what M&Ms are for?

from my experiences, people are always trying to save face by being extremely defensive or it becomes a blaming game during M&M

That made me cry. I'm not sure if I could relate this to myself. I'm not a medical practitioner! I felt the sincerity in his speech. I could sense his pain. Maybe I felt it so much because I have relatives who are medical practitioners, and I imagined that they've gone through similar difficulties.

Thos doctor is real

I do agree strongly that it is a cultural change that medicine, and to come extent America , needs if we wish to achieve goals of better health and wellness while spending fewer dollars . The rest of the political and bureaucratic mumbo jumbo is wasteful crap...it spends more money and worsens delivery of care.

Wow

The penalties for mistakes are so punitive, no one will talk about them.
