In part one of this two part discussion on the "soft skills" Nicole and Sean Hagey begin to discuss how understanding the social history and personality of the patient in front of you can effect clinical outcomes. This episode is not the hard and fast rules of evidence we have all come to love, but messy, soft, and complex look at ourselves and the other humans we interact with daily.
