Abstract

In this essay, the author, a medical student, details his experience interpreting for a physician and his Chinese-speaking depression-afflicted patient. The author describes and reflects on the difficulties presented in cross-cultural interactions, especially when it involves culturally sensitive medical issues, and through this case ultimately examines lessons on how healthcare providers can more compassionately approach all patients.
