Bullets do more damage than tearing through tissue. Recovery takes more than surgery and stitches. Bullet wounds go more than skin deep. LJ Punch, M.D., is a trauma surgeon and the founder of the BRIC, the Bullet-Related Injury Clinic in Saint Louis, Mo. BRIC is where shooting victims come for wound care and education, help with pain management, care for the emotional and social impact of being shot, and the acknowledgement that their bullet wound could likely have profound spiritual meaning for them, their families, and their communities.
