Sam Kant, MD
Doctor trained in Internal medicine and nephology in Ireland and now doing residency (chief resident from July'18) at a major university hospital in the US. Major interests include research in renal disease- vasculitis, glomerulonephritis and transplant epidemiology; along with writing - bringing poignant stories to the fore via narrative medicine and using writing to explore answers to questions that continually arise in the practice of medicine. Outside of these realms, I enjoy boxing, traveling and reading.
The Indomitable Spirit of My Dying Patient
Caring for a much loved Irish farmer facing certain death from advanced renal failure reminded his doctor that selfless beings who exemplify the act of giving without any incentive and show the community that embracing the ones in need ends up making us indomitable.
