	Description:		In this narrative, Dr. Martina Kelly reflects on the role of “touch” in medicine, a word that seems inappropriately intimate but also a routine part of clinical practice. Dr. Kelly is a family doctor, working in the Dept of Family Medicine of the University of Calgary Cumming School of Medicine in Calgary, Alberta. Her Humanities Encounters article is published in the Canadian Medical Association Journal. It is called "Learning to touch."
