“I don’t think anybody, as a doctor or patient, wants to go to the doctor and say ‘Doctor, I have some specific signs and symptoms’ and the doctor to say ‘well, sir, you’re suffering from a socially constructed condition and we need to change society, not treat the individual.'”

Dr. Metzl delivers the keynote at the Humanities Futures Capstone Conference at Duke University’s Franklin Humanities Institute.
