Summary:Let me first start by thanking everyone who responded to my editorial entitled: 'Why and How is Compassion Necessary to Provide Good Quality Healthcare?'1 It is both a humbling and deeply gratifying experience, to receive so many thoughtful and valuable comments from colleagues whose work I know and respect. And it is in equal measure, rewarding and stimulating, to be able to read engaging and incisive responses from colleagues I have never met but whose writings inspire me.
