Medical tech doesn’t have to weaken human connection—it often amplifies it when used thoughtfully. Telemedicine saves time for deeper conversations, AI handles paperwork so doctors can focus on listening, and wearable data gives patients more agency and shared decision-making. The risk appears only when tech replaces empathy instead of supporting it. Doctors who maintain eye contact, touch, and storytelling keep the human core alive. The best modern care blends cutting-edge tools with old-school compassion.https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9868719
