Reading for uncertainty instead of certainty
Medicine often requires decisions before every fact is available. Narrative writing can help readers practice tolerating that uncertainty, provided ambiguity is not converted into a sales claim or a declaration of proof.
Mark statements as observation, recollection, interpretation, or research finding. That simple classification reveals where confidence is justified and where a question should remain open.
