A few weeks back, in my Clinical Seminar (aka "Homeroom") class, a topic came up that got some people, including myself, a bit roused up.  We were sitting in a small circle and discussing specific patient cases when one student explained a predicament that they were in with one of their patients. The patient repeatedly came back to the clinic to see this particular student but each time they came they requested a certain part of their treatment.  For example, the patient wanted a certain set of ear points that a previous student had once done and in which the patient had received incredible relief from their pain from having done, week after week.
