In the book that Anatole Broyard wrote about being diagnosed with cancer, he described wishing that his doctor “would brood on my situation for perhaps five minutes, that he would give me his whole mind just once … survey my soul as well as my flesh, to get at my illness, for each man is ill in his own way”. Given the desperate state of the UK’s health services, such appeals for personalised attention might sound like messages beamed in from another world. But a new study from the University of Cambridge offers some of the strongest proof to date that strong doctor-patient relationships contribute positively to health.
