    Will a generation of physicians that worked as scribes as premeds use scribes?

    And also who has ever scribed for a doctor who sends the scribe out of the room the last quarter of the patient visit? At first I thought it was weird but now I think it's actually a nice thing to do for patients to make sure there is nothing they want to talk about in private.
