“…For example, casebook authors advocated for clinical observation and immersion to serve as the two main mechanisms for building MedFT skills. They targeted application of skills across certain diagnostic areas, including but not limited to, somatization disorders (Cohen 1995), congestive heart failure (Clabby and Howarth 2007), diabetes (Munshower 2004), munchausen (Kannai 2009), fibromyalgia (Navon 2005), neurologic impairment (Gellerstedt and Mauksch 1993), parenting children with health challenges (Rosenberg et al 2008;Thomasgard et al 2004) and HIV/AIDS (Lowe 2007). MedFT Casebook authors also addressed navigating cultural differences in establishing care (Schirmer and Le 2002), supporting the doctor-patient relationship (Knishkowy and Herman 1998;Radomsky 1996), and facilitating the act of collaboration (Leahy et al 1994;Prest et al 1996;Ruddy et al 1994).…”
