    AbstractFamily medicine is a champion of human-focused health care in the context of lasting relationships. What do humans need-those who seek care and those who offer it? Respect, understanding, and kindness. Without it, more money, more ancillary personnel, more time-saving technology cannot lift us from the profession's doldrums. The author believes that the deep desire to be of help to others can be rekindled in an office culture where the humanity in all of us is honored.© 2023 Annals of Family Medicine, Inc.
