title: An inspirational teacher - reflections of a medical student.
abstract: Based on personal experiences from the pediatric core clerkship of the third year of medical school, this reflexive writing piece highlights the positive impact that a preceptor had on my development as a physician-in-training. The piece draws attention to the emphasis that this preceptor places on cultivating constructive, supportive patient-doctor relationships and on pursuing a career path that is congruent with our inclinations and abilities.
