Dear Sigmund Freud,
I am deeply sorry to hear about the difficulties you’ve encountered with your medical team regarding the communication of information after your tumor resection. It is of paramount importance that patients receive clear, honest, and comprehensive information about their medical conditions and treatments. The trust between a patient and their healthcare providers is a cornerstone of effective medical care.
In the current era, the advent of Internet-based medical consultation services and Local Large Language Models (LLMs) like PrivateGPT have indeed revolutionized the way patients can obtain medical information. These technological advancements have the potential to enhance patient understanding and engagement in their healthcare.
Internet Doctor Services provide a platform where patients can seek second opinions, clarify doubts, or get more information about their medical conditions. These services often employ licensed physicians who can offer professional advice. However, it is crucial to ensure that the service is reputable and that the information provided is accurate and tailored to your specific health situation.
Local LLMs, such as PrivateGPT, represent a cutting-edge development in artificial intelligence. They are designed to understand and generate human-like text based on the input they receive. In a medical context, they can be programmed with vast amounts of medical knowledge, enabling them to answer questions, suggest possible diagnoses, or even help with treatment plans. However, it is essential to remember that while these models can provide valuable information, they are not a substitute for professional medical advice from a licensed healthcare provider.
As a physician specializing in psychoanalysis, I would like to emphasize the psychological impact of not receiving clear communication from your medical team. It is natural to feel anxious, frustrated, or even betrayed when the expectation of transparent communication is not met. In such situations, it is important to address these feelings and seek support, whether through further discussion with your medical team or by consulting a mental health professional.
In light of the newest medical publications and considering the advancements in technology and patient care, I would advise you to advocate for your right to comprehensive information about your health. Do not hesitate to request a meeting with your medical team to discuss your concerns and to ask for a detailed explanation of your condition and the treatment you received. If necessary, seek a second opinion to ensure that you are fully informed and comfortable with your care.
Remember, as a patient, you are entitled to receive information that is not only accurate but also communicated in a manner that is respectful and considerate of your emotional well-being. The integration of somatic and psychological aspects of care is crucial for a holistic approach to health.
If you find yourself in need of emotional assistance, please consider reaching out to a psychoanalyst or therapist who can provide you with the support you need during this challenging time.
With warm regards and in professional solidarity,

Dear Sigmund,
It is indeed regrettable to hear that there was a lack of transparency in the communication regarding your condition post-tumor resection. In the realm of medical ethics, honesty and clarity in patient-doctor communication are paramount. It is essential for patients to be fully informed about their health status to make educated decisions regarding their treatment and care.
In the contemporary era, the advent of digital technology has indeed introduced novel avenues for medical consultation and information dissemination. The Internet has become a repository of medical knowledge, and various platforms offer the services of virtual healthcare providers. These can range from informational websites to interactive services like telemedicine, where patients can consult with healthcare professionals remotely.
Additionally, the development of AI-driven technologies such as Local Large Language Models (LLMs) like PrivateGPT has further expanded the horizons of medical assistance. These AI systems are designed to provide personalized responses based on vast amounts of medical literature and data. However, it is crucial to note that while these tools can offer general advice and information, they are not substitutes for professional medical diagnosis or treatment. They should be used to supplement, rather than replace, the expertise of qualified healthcare providers.
In your case, if you find yourself seeking additional information or a second opinion, these digital resources can be of assistance. However, I would strongly advise that you continue to engage in direct dialogue with your healthcare team. It is your right as a patient to receive clear, accurate, and comprehensive information about your health. If you feel that your concerns are not being adequately addressed, you may consider seeking a second opinion from another reputable medical professional.
In the context of your historical treatment, it is evident that the medical community has evolved significantly since then, with a greater emphasis on patient autonomy and informed consent. Today, with the latest medical publications and guidelines, we might approach your treatment differently than we would have in 1938. The integration of modern surgical techniques, advanced radiotherapy, and improved prosthetic technology would likely result in a more refined and effective treatment plan.
Please remember that while digital tools can provide valuable insights, they are not a replacement for the personalized care and expertise of a dedicated medical professional.
With best regards,
