Medical practice is a serious business, but Dr. Mel Borins thinks physicians sometimes take themselves and their profession too seriously and overlook the therapeutic value of joy and laughter. He thinks patients should be encouraged to laugh, and physicians should not overlook the benefits of humour in their personal lives.
