#3 Surgeon Uses Ministry in Medical Practice (Health care and religion) DALLAS–At 83, Carl Smith faced quadruple bypass surgery and the real possibility that he might not survive. Within hours on this spring morning, Dr. Daniel Pool would temporarily bring Smith’s heart to a stop in an attempt to circumvent its blocked passages. And to help his patient confront the uncertainty, Pool did something unusual in his profession: He prayed with him. The power of healing: Medicine and religion have had their day, and they haven’t always been able to coexist. But as today’s medical treatment becomes more holistic, doctors are increasingly taking spirituality into account.
