Abstract

And yet again, summer solstice is just behind the cor‑ ner. As the time passes so quickly, do we really have a chance to use it profitability? One way is to study hard and be up‑to‑date. Then we know new and com‑ plex syndromes or fancy and expensive drugs. But is this really what it is about? Spending less and less time with the patients or on patients’ records, surly we miss a great bulk of knowledge. Knowledge, that is just in front of us and yet we close our eyes and quickly turn on computers and internet in the quest for the holy grail. Is this right thing to do? Well, patients may think of us as very smart when we constantly use incom‑ prehensible medical jargon. But, occasionally we may jump into conclusions, that what was just described in other side of the globe, was ready to grasp in front of our noses. Thoughtful observation and thinking is as good as ground‑breaking science. And for our patients may be even better.
