While most people recognize that this process takes years and involves various stages, public knowledge of specifics is often oversimplified, overdramatized, or simply left mysterious. Farris brings readers behind the scenes, to help them develop a better understanding of all aspects of the experience \u2014 from anxiety over student loans and persistent bouts of impostor syndrome to friendships forged under stressful circumstances and the impossibility of a work-personal life balance. She takes us with her into her first-year anatomy class, where things go along relatively smoothly until, late in the semester, the bone saw is taken out. One of the students goes down, and the professor, without missing a beat, tells the class this is a &#8220;typical reaction.&#8221; In another scene, Farris describes how medical students end up needing to learn more than 10,000 new words over the course of a year. In a series of illustrated flashcards depicting some of these new words and their meanings (&#8220;Necrosis,&#8221; &#8220;Apoptosis&#8221;), we get a sense of just how intricate and overwhelming such an endeavor might feel.<\/p>\n<div id=\"resg-s1-135027\" class=\"bucketwrap image large\">\n<div class=\"imagewrap has-source-dimensions\" data-crop-type=\"\" style=\"&#10;        --source-width: 1918;&#10;        --source-height: 2583;&#10;    \">\n        <picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/npr.brightspotcdn.com\/dims3\/default\/strip\/false\/crop\/1918x2583+0+0\/resize\/400\/quality\/85\/format\/webp\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnpr-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fa8%2F98%2Faa08103b4cd4b48caa1e21f51fb0%2Fseeonedooneteachone-pg241.jpg 400w,&#10;https:\/\/npr.brightspotcdn.com\/dims3\/default\/strip\/false\/crop\/1918x2583+0+0\/resize\/600\/quality\/85\/format\/webp\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnpr-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fa8%2F98%2Faa08103b4cd4b48caa1e21f51fb0%2Fseeonedooneteachone-pg241.jpg 600w,&#10;https:\/\/npr.brightspotcdn.com\/dims3\/default\/strip\/false\/crop\/1918x2583+0+0\/resize\/800\/quality\/85\/format\/webp\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnpr-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fa8%2F98%2Faa08103b4cd4b48caa1e21f51fb0%2Fseeonedooneteachone-pg241.jpg 800w,&#10;https:\/\/npr.brightspotcdn.com\/dims3\/default\/strip\/false\/crop\/1918x2583+0+0\/resize\/900\/quality\/85\/format\/webp\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnpr-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fa8%2F98%2Faa08103b4cd4b48caa1e21f51fb0%2Fseeonedooneteachone-pg241.jpg 900w,&#10;https:\/\/npr.brightspotcdn.com\/dims3\/default\/strip\/false\/crop\/1918x2583+0+0\/resize\/1200\/quality\/85\/format\/webp\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnpr-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fa8%2F98%2Faa08103b4cd4b48caa1e21f51fb0%2Fseeonedooneteachone-pg241.jpg 1200w,&#10;https:\/\/npr.brightspotcdn.com\/dims3\/default\/strip\/false\/crop\/1918x2583+0+0\/resize\/1600\/quality\/85\/format\/webp\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnpr-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fa8%2F98%2Faa08103b4cd4b48caa1e21f51fb0%2Fseeonedooneteachone-pg241.jpg 1600w,&#10;https:\/\/npr.brightspotcdn.com\/dims3\/default\/strip\/false\/crop\/1918x2583+0+0\/resize\/1800\/quality\/85\/format\/webp\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnpr-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fa8%2F98%2Faa08103b4cd4b48caa1e21f51fb0%2Fseeonedooneteachone-pg241.jpg 1800w\" data-template=\"https:\/\/npr.brightspotcdn.com\/dims3\/default\/strip\/false\/crop\/1918x2583+0+0\/resize\/{width}\/quality\/{quality}\/format\/{format}\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnpr-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fa8%2F98%2Faa08103b4cd4b48caa1e21f51fb0%2Fseeonedooneteachone-pg241.jpg\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1025px) 650px, calc(100vw -

She plays with visual metaphors, too, throughout, in order to give a sense of the texture of certain feelings and experiences. Working in the emergency room for the first time during her internal medicine clerkship feels like encountering a tsunami, as classroom knowledge and limited clinical experiences are suddenly, and forcefully, put to the test. And later, when she&#8217;s doing her medical internship, she suddenly begins to feel less like an impostor, likening the change to the slow, observable transformation of seasons. This reflective occasion is illustrated in a pair of bright images, a landscape of sturdy trees studded with golden leaves.<\/p>\n<aside id=\"ad-secondary-wrap\" class=\"ad-wrap secondary\" aria-label=\"advertisement\">\n<\/aside>\n<aside id=\"mid-story-recommendations-mount-piano\" class=\"mid-story-recommendations-mount-piano\" aria-label=\"recommended stories\"\/>\n<!-- END ID=\"MID-STORY-RECOMMENDATIONS-MOUNT-PIANO\" CLASS=\"MID-STORY-RECOMMENDATIONS-MOUNT-PIANO\" ARIA-LABEL=\"RECOMMENDED STORIES\" --><\/p>\n<div id=\"resnx-s1-5901975-101\" class=\"bucketwrap internallink insettwocolumn inset2col \">\n<div class=\"bucket img\">\n                  <a class=\"imagewrap\" id=\"featuredStackSquareImage1084356769\" href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/sections\/health-shots\/2022\/03\/08\/1084356769\/kids-vaccines-needle-phobia\" data-metrics-ga4=\"{&quot;category&quot;:&quot;recirculation&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:&quot;story_recirculation_click&quot;,&quot;clickType&quot;:&quot;inset box&quot;,&quot;clickUrl&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/www.npr.org\\\/sections\\\/health-shots\\\/2022\\\/03\\\/08\\\/1084356769\\\/kids-vaccines-needle-phobia&quot;}\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/media.npr.org\/assets\/img\/2022\/03\/07\/needle-fear-promo_sq-7d30a0ccb79de7a8ec9c23c0367171d2758330f9.jpg?s=100&amp;c=85&amp;f=jpeg\" data-original=\"https:\/\/media.npr.org\/assets\/img\/2022\/03\/07\/needle-fear-promo_sq-7d30a0ccb79de7a8ec9c23c0367171d2758330f9.jpg?s=100&amp;c=100&amp;f=jpeg\" data-template=\"https:\/\/media.npr.org\/assets\/img\/2022\/03\/07\/needle-fear-promo_sq-7d30a0ccb79de7a8ec9c23c0367171d2758330f9.jpg?s={width}&amp;c={quality}&amp;f={format}\" data-format=\"webp\" class=\"img lazyOnLoad\" type=\"image\/webp\"\/><source srcset=\"https:\/\/media.npr.org\/assets\/img\/2022\/03\/07\/needle-fear-promo_sq-7d30a0ccb79de7a8ec9c23c0367171d2758330f9.jpg?s=100&amp;c=85&amp;f=jpeg\" data-original=\"https:\/\/media.npr.org\/assets\/img\/2022\/03\/07\/needle-fear-promo_sq-7d30a0ccb79de7a8ec9c23c0367171d2758330f9.jpg?s=100&amp;c=100&amp;f=jpeg\" data-template=\"https:\/\/media.npr.org\/assets\/img\/2022\/03\/07\/needle-fear-promo_sq-7d30a0ccb79de7a8ec9c23c0367171d2758330f9.jpg?s={width}&amp;c={quality}&amp;f={format}\" data-format=\"jpeg\" class=\"img lazyOnLoad\" type=\"image\/jpeg\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.npr.org\/assets\/img\/2022\/03\/07\/needle-fear-promo_sq-7d30a0ccb79de7a8ec9c23c0367171d2758330f9.jpg?s=100&amp;c=100&amp;f=jpeg\" data-template=\"https:\/\/media.npr.org\/assets\/img\/2022\/03\/07\/needle-fear-promo_sq-7d30a0ccb79de7a8ec9c23c0367171d2758330f9.jpg?s={width}&amp;c={quality}&amp;f={format}\" data-format=\"jpeg\" class=\"img lazyOnLoad\" alt=\"Bubbles, breathwork or bribery?

They also contain peculiarities specific to her own personal history. Throughout her initial years of med school, even well into her clinical years, she does not know what type of medicine she wants to pursue. We act as witness as she comes to recognize the specializations that are definitely not for her (surgery, pediatrics), and those that could be (psychiatry, internal medicine). For Farris, it&#8217;s a slow, anxiety-provoking, and ultimately fulfilling journey to figuring it all out.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the most charming moments in the book occur when Farris recognizes how her artistic interests and her medical pursuits overlap. It&#8217;s in dissecting an ear and encountering the tiniest bone in the human body that Farris undergoes a &#8220;turning point&#8221;: &#8220;The tiny stapes was a miracle.&#8221; Her artistic skills and sensitivities come into play at various stages of the learning process, like as a way to help her get better acquainted with human anatomy and also when she realizes that it helps to sketch and diagram the various materials that need to be memorized. The title of the book comes from a phrase one of her surgical rotation supervisors passes along, &#8220;a classic expression in medicine.&#8221; The surgeon asks Farris to watch as the surgical site is sewn up, so she can do this final step of the procedure on her own next time around. &#8220;How on earth could I ever teach one?&#8221; Farris wonders of the final step in the phrase, after she watches and then attempts the skill on her own.<\/p>\n<p><em>See One, Do One, Teach One<\/em> joins a growing body of work often referred to as Graphic Medicine, the community and practice of using comics and illustration to support healthcare workers and patients in their efforts to tell stories that speak to all kinds of experiences. If it&#8217;s too easy to forget \u2014 or too difficult to envision \u2014 what it&#8217;s like to be a medical student, healthcare worker, or even a patient in certain situations, books like Farris&#8217; are an effective teaching tool. They offer an important, powerful way to bridge that gap.<\/p>\n<div id=\"resnx-s1-5901975-103\" class=\"bucketwrap ecommerce\">\n            <button class=\"ecommerce__button ecommerce__button--book\"><svg class=\"icon icon--cart\"><use href=\"#icon-cart\"\/><\/svg><b class=\"ecommerce__callout\">Purchase Book<\/b><b class=\"ecommerce__title\">See One, Do One, Teach One<\/b><b class=\"ecommerce_by-label\"> by <\/b><b class=\"ecommerce__creator\">Grace Farris MD<\/b><\/button>      <\/p>\n<p><!-- END CLASS=\"ECOMMERCEPOP\" -->\n   <\/div>\n<p><!-- END ID=\"RESNX-S1-5901975-103\" CLASS=\"BUCKETWRAP ECOMMERCE\" -->\n<\/div>\n<script async=\"async\" data-cfasync=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/pl30214220.effectivecpmnetwork.com\/9ab3d4df8a7e1a6171e16ddbf732cc19\/invoke.js\"><\/script>\r\n<div id=\"container-9ab3d4df8a7e1a6171e16ddbf732cc19\"><\/div>\r\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For most people, knowledge of what life on the job is like for healthcare workers comes primarily from two limited vantage points: watching television shows and experiencing their own patient care.
