    In Jerome Groopman’s fascinating New York Times article “What’s the Trouble,” we learn of three specific cases in which skilled physicians, “rely[ing] on shortcuts and rules of thumb... known...as ‘heuristics’” (Groopman 4), fail to make accurate diagnoses concerning the unknown maladies of their subjects. However, since the article is written from the limited perspective of a medical professional, it lacks insight into the heuristic techniques of the patient, the cursory and sometimes imprecise trial-and-error processes which he or she must run through to deduce whether or not their clinician is trustworthy. I would like to discuss the heuristic method which I believe to be the most frequently utilized by patients: unverified trust in the doctor’s good morale simply because he or she…
