Gold Humanism Honor Society is a student organization at Wayne State University School of Medicine that aims to instill and sustain a culture of respect, dignity and compassion for patients and professionals in the health care environment. Humanistic medical care is not simply compassion. It is the best of medicine. When skilled physicians build caring, trusting and collaborative relationships with patients, studies reveal more appropriate medical decisions, better patient adherence with treatment plans, and less costly healthcare outcomes.
