pickFinal Exam is a call to action in an effort to rectify the dysfunctional relationship we have with death. While physicians are charged with saving lives, most are uncomfortable when handling end-of-life. Death is seen as the result of failure rather than the natural culmination of life. The true final exam is how doctors will come to balance the detachment needed to preserve their sanity with the compassion & required to be an exemplary physician.
