I remember when I first looked up a patient on Google. It was my last day on the bone marrow transplant unit, back when I was an intern. As I stood before the patient, taking her history, she told me she had been a painter and suggested I look up her work on the Internet. I did, and I found her paintings fascinating. Even though our paths crossed fleetingly, she is one of the few patients I vividly remember from that time.

我仍然清晰地记得我第一次谷歌搜索患者的经历。那是我在骨髓移植科实习的最后一天，我与一个患者闲聊，她告诉我她是个画家，并建议我去上网看看她的作品。我搜了搜，觉得她的画着实精彩。因此，虽然我与她只有短暂的接触，但她成为了令我印象最深的患者之一。

Google has taught me other things, too, things that don't come up during the routine history-taking or medication checks of my usual doctor-patient interactions. I learned recently, for example, that one of my patients had been an Olympic gold medalist and world-record holder in the 1960s. Knowing more about my patients as people helps build empathy.

除了艺术作品，谷歌也曾带给我一些其他的信息，一些常规的医患交流（如询问病史、服药史等）无法带来的东西。举个例子，几周前，我搜索发现我的一位患者在20世纪60年代曾是奥运会冠军和世界纪录保持者。这些信息帮助我更深入地了解患者，使我更容易与他们建立感情。
