RE: What's cooking and why

in Galenkp's Stuff4 months ago

I think these types of meetings can be very useful, during the year there is always a patient that you can't see and I think it is important to know the right person to whom you can refer them. On the other hand, I get patients who send me patients who know me better thanks to this type of meeting.

On some occasions I have had problems using my office, for example, a year ago they did construction work on the floor next door and I could not use it because of the noise. At that time they lent me other offices... Anyway, I think these meetings are quite useful. It is also true that we are few people, perhaps with more people I would feel uncomfortable in a meeting of this type.

Sort:  

People, in my opinion, are less connected than ever - I mean true and real connection, not being "friends" on Facebook - and I think that concepts like this, done right, help to close the gaps that exist between people; it's not suitable for all workplaces but I think it has merit.

I am of the same opinion. Real encounters cannot be replaced by virtual ones. the connection cannot be the same. But it is a trend. Since covid almost all the people I see are on-line, and people don't understand how important personal contact is for me, the information that is lost because we don't see each other in person. I don't know, I guess we live in a time where quantity is more important than quality.
