He first attempted to approach this problem in the early 1920s at the Berlin hospital where he worked in the section of Professor Warburg. At that time, he already knew Sa ´ ndor Feren- czi, who also was interested in the question of the doctor–patient relation- ship. We can assume that Balint read Ferenczi’s paper, “Psychanalysis in the service of the general practicioner” published in 1923. Once back in Hungary, Balint published in 1930 his paper “The crisis of the medical practice” (included in our first Balint issue) for the first time in English. One can find
