Selamat Datang (Welcome) Faculty and Registrants

Facing Our Mistakes, is a classic article which appeared in the New England Journal of Medicine in 1984. It's about the inevitability of making serious mistakes as a physician, the agony it brings to us, and our frequent inability to deal with it. The author, David Hilfiker has placed the article on his website.
