Have you ever heard of graphic medicine? Have you wondered what is the difference between a comic and a cartoon? And how is this related to your work in the clinic? In this episode of the CFP podcast, Drs Nick Pimlott and Sarah Fraser interview author Susan MacLeod about all things graphic medicine. We dive into Susan’s professional experiences in government health communications and her transition into becoming an internationally acclaimed author. She then defines graphic medicine, gives us an overview of why it’s important, and how it relates to compassion and burnout in the health care system. Finally, Susan walks Nick and Sarah through a brief graphic medicine exercise-do try this at home!
