At Webb Ranch, horses teach
Stanford medical students
how to better relate to their
human patients
By Maggie Mah Johnson

r. Beverley Kane is a physician with an impressive resume. She teaches secondand third-year medical students how to be better doctors. She uses horses to
do it. WHOA! What’s up with that?
Since 2005, Dr. Kane has been the program director for “Medicine & Horsemanship” at the Stanford School of Medicine. The course is designed to help doctors
develop the interpersonal skills necessary for good communication with patients and
other doctors, a key issue in health care.
Studies by the American Medical Association and others show poor communication to
be a common cause of medical errors. It is often a factor in malpractice suits and patient
dissatisfaction, and has a lot to do with whether a patient follows through with treatment.
According to the AMA, the ability to
empathize decreases as medical students
deal with increasing time constraints and
the strain of treating people in highly emotional situations.
“Many health-care professionals have not
developed the emotional intelligence and
perception required for clinical excellence,”
Dr. Kane says.
On top of that, patients don’t always say
what’s really going on. It’s left up to the doctor to figure things out.
“We’ve all been socialized into hiding
our feelings and reactions, especially from
somebody in a white coat,” says Dr. Kane.
“Horses will tell you in no uncertain terms
how you’re affecting them.”
HOW HORSES HELP
Many experts agree that much and maybe
most of human communication is non-
verbal. But in medicine, as elsewhere, the
focus is on spoken and written words.
Tuning into non-verbal communication
could make an enormous difference, maybe
even between life and death.
Unlike most humans, horses are experts
at non-verbal communication. Evolving as
prey animals, their survival has depended on
being extremely sensitive to minute gestures,
eye movement and emotional energy. The
way horses respond to body language makes
them uniquely suited to teach humans that

probate. The will and any codicils are
available for examination in the file kept
by the court.
THE PETITION requests authority
to administer the estate under the
Independent Administration of Estates

however, the personal representative
will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived
notice or consented to the proposed
action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless

petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file
written objections with the court before
the hearing. Your appearance may be in
person or by your attorney. IF YOU ARE
A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of
the deceased, you must file your claim
with the court and mail a copy to the
personal representative appointed by
the court within four months from the
date of first issuance of letters as provided in section 9100 of the California
Probate Code. The time for filing claims
will not expire before four months
from the hearing date noticed above.
YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court
a Request for Special Notice (form
DE-154) of the filing of an inventory
and appraisal of estate assets or of
any petition or account as provided in
Probate Code section 1250. A Request
for Special Notice form is available
from the court clerk.
