Is there a role for religion in medical practice?

December 2, 2011 at 07:00 PM
Geffen Auditorium, Gonda Building, Mayo Clinic Rochester
Presenters: John Tarpley, Director, General Surgery Residency Program; Professor, Department of Surgery, Section of Surgical Sciences, Vanderbilt Univerity

Medical practice should be precise, objective, scientific. So how does religion fit in? Isn't religion the realm of the emotional, the gullible, the mystical? What does religion have to do with medicine? Join Dr. John Tarpley, MD, for a talk and discussion about integrating two massive worlds in a way that promises to better our ability to care for each other.
