Recognizing patterns will not only help you in medicine, but in virtually any field. This is why experience can be super helpful, and why I always at least listen to the opinions of those with more experience (even if I may not 100% agree); they have been around the pattern more times than I have. 😷 The more time you spend seeing and evaluating patients in various situations, the better you’ll become at recognizing patterns, which will allow you to diagnose and treat patients more efficiently.
