Surgical empathy aims to help a person feel found in the painful inner place where they believed they were alone. Surgical empathy differs from reassurance, advice, and standard clinical questioning by using emotionally accurate statements. The framework presents surgical empathy as practice-based rather than a formally proven protocol. Surgical empathy is a deep form of empathy intended to reach the core of a person's pain. Surgical empathy replaces interrogation with attuned statements that give the person room to correct what is named.
