“Your mother is my idol,” one of her residents says to me. I pause and look into the eyes of the new generation of lady-doctors And see my mom, soaked in the foul brew of snarky comments Holding me above the sharp-toothed doubters until I am too big to be held. I nod, “Me, too.”
In Conversation with My Mother, Literature by Sommer Glasgow, MS
Sommer Glasgow, MS
Study Coordinator, Division of Pediatric Critical Care, UUSOM Class of 2027
Sommer has dedicated her academic career to studying the intersection of narrative and medicine as a lens through which we can extract empathy in the clinical encounter and be more
compassionate providers. In her free time, she can be found hosting narrative medicine workshops for physicians or patients, hiking in the Wasatch mountains with her Australian Shepherd puppy, or skiing her favorite secret stashes of powder at Snowbird. She has her Master of Science in Narrative Medicine and is very excited to join the University of Utah School of Medicine Class of 2027 next year.
