Richard Clarke Cabot was an American physician, medical reformer, and social worker.
Background
Richard Clarke Cabot was born on May 21, 1868; the fifth in a family of seven sons of James Elliot and Elizabeth (Dwight) Cabot, was born at Brookline, Massachussets, into a group of wealthy and intimately associated New England families, among them the Jacksons, Higginsons, Dudleys, Perkinses, Lowells, and Lees--families distinguished for their dedication to the ideals of social amelioration and cultural advancement. His father, editor of the works of Ralph Waldo Emerson and his biographer, spent some years of his life as an architect but most of it as a philosopher. His mother was active in charitable and educational affairs of the community. A cousin, Joseph Lee, devoted his life to social work.
Education
Having prepared for college at G. W. C. Noble's Classical School in Boston, Cabot entered Harvard, from which he graduated in 1889, A. B. summa cum laude, and the Harvard Medical School, from which he received the M. D. degree in 1892.
Career
He changed the way that the outpatient department was run, believing that economic, social, family and psychological conditions underpinned many of the conditions that patients presented with. He envisaged that social workers would work in a complementary relationship with doctors, the former concentrating on physiological health, and the latter on social health. In addition to this, he saw that social work could improve medicine by providing a critical perspective on it while working alongside it in an organisational setting. In 1905 Cabot created one of the first positions of professional social worker in the world, given to Garnet Pelton, and then to Ida Cannon. Although Clarke credited his approach as similar to that of Anne Cummins in London. The hospital refused to support the hiring of social workers, and Cabot had to pay their wages himself. Pelten developed tuberculosis herself soon after taking up the position and was forced to retire. Cannon stayed in the position for forty years and became Head of Social Work at the hospital. Cabot and Cannon pioneered many programs to improve the health of patients, including art classes for psychiatric patients, low-cost meals for patients and research on the social factors that increased a person's likelihood of developing tuberculosis.
In 1917 Cabot took up a position in the Medical Reserve Corps for a year. He returned briefly to Massachusetts General Hospital in 1918 and then left to take up the position of chair at Harvard's Department of Social Ethics in 1919. At this time, the hospital agreed to pay the wages of social workers, as up to this point, Cabot had paid the wages of thirteen social workers over the last 12 years. He went on to write about his experiences in his book Social Work.
He is also credited with discovering Cabot rings, and for describing, along with his colleague, Locke, the eponymous Cabot-Locke murmur, a diastolic murmur occasionally heard in severe anemia, unrelated to heart valve abnormalities.
Cabot established a tradition of teaching conferences at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) that featured generating differential diagnoses, and founded the long-standing feature of Case Record of MGH in New England Journal of Medicine.

Views
Throughout his life Cabot was an outspoken advocate of scrupulous honesty and candor on the part of the medical profession. He believed that patients should be given the full truth about their condition, though he himself aided his patients by sympathy and interpretation in accepting a serious diagnosis. He applied the same ethical standards to the relations of the medical profession with the general public. Out of four hundred diseases, he once stated publicly, only seven were curable by drugs and five by inoculations--"God and the wisdom of the body constitute 90 per cent of the patient's hope of recovery. " He did not hesitate to express his belief that "the vast majority of the diagnoses made while he was in practice were wrong. "
As early as 1913 Cabot had advocated a plan of prepaid medical care provided by a group-practice unit of physicians, and less than two years before his death he expressed his conviction that "group medicine is 100 times better for the patient and for the doctor than the ordinary, usual practice. " This judgment was perhaps strengthened by the experience of his younger brother, Dr. Hugh Cabot, who had participated extensively in group practice.
Personality
"Rugged and fiery in his exposition, " in the words of White, he was especially distinguished for "his willingness to commit himself to the most rigid tests of his own diagnostic acumen. His courage and honesty inspired his students and his colleagues to learn through their errors as he did through his. "
Connections
In 1894 he married Ella Lyman of Waltham, Massachussets, who became a distinguished teacher and writer, interested, like her husband, in psychology and ethics. Their marriage, though childless, was a devoted and happy one.
