TY - JOUR T1 - Linda headrick, md: Seeking a common language in primary care AU - Mullan F Y1 - 1998/08/19 N1 - 10.1001/jama.280.7.655 JO - JAMA SP - 655 EP - 658 VL - 280 IS - 7 N2 - Linda Headrick is an academician—a teacher, a clinician, and a trafficker in new ideas. She is a member of the "academy" by dint of being on the faculty of Case Western Reserve University Medical School in Cleveland, Ohio. But she is not a classical academician by traditional standards of medical school scholarship and recognition. Her patients tend not to be those with esoteric problems but those with common ones. Her teaching addresses the problems of the system and the population in addition to the biological problems of the individual. Her research subjects are neither patients nor laboratory animals but rather the system that makes the medical center and the medical care system function . . . or dysfunction.
