That One Patient — Why Medicine Treats the Disease but Misses the Person
Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world.
Author: Ellen de Visser
This episode explores That One Patient by Ellen de Visser as a systems-level analysis of how institutional medicine influences treatment decisions, emotional detachment, and patient autonomy.
By focusing on incentive architecture rather than individual intentions, the episode examines why healthcare systems prioritize intervention, procedural compliance, and liability management — and how those incentives shape both patient outcomes and physician behavior.
