I don’t know how he gets everything done, but here are some other articles that Dr. Eberly has created time to write:
Mending the Healers: Young doctors are suffering from a crisis of meaning. Can med school still offer moral formation?
Moving From “At” to “With”: To move from “at” to “with” is to step into suffering’s beam. It is changing how we see our neighbor.
Toward Remembering Where I Came From: Knowing your past will guide your future.
If you can find a human who has attended the same four schools that I attended, I will buy you lunch.
If you can find someone who has gone to school for a CMA (Certified Medical Assistant) AFTER getting an MBA, I will buy you breakfast.
