"Yes, I most certainly consider myself an empathetic person. I take the opportunity to understand and help others whenever possible. While attending university, I spent a lot of time volunteering at a local hospice - not only for the added experience but also to give back to others. I look forward to continuing this level of compassionate care with your organization."

Empathy is the ability to understand and share the feelings of others. In other words, it is being able to put yourself in another person's shoes to know how they are feeling. Focus on describing ways you show your patients empathy in your role as a healthcare professional.
