The inner world of medical students: listening to their voices in poetry.

McKie, Andrew

Abstract

What themes constitute the experience of undertaking a medical school education? Shapiro, a medical humanities scholar, explores this question through a content analysis of poetry written by American medical students. The result is a fascinating insight into the ways in which writing poetry can promote reflective practice.
