The objective in this article is discusses the effects of listening to suffering from the perspective of the psychoanalytic clinic in a report of a case attended in a hospital health service. Medical urgency is part of the routine of health professionals, whose mission is to save lives quickly following previously established protocols. The subjective urgency belongs to the practice of the psychoanalytic clinic, especially in health institutions, where we find subjects who, when passing through a moment of illness, often trigger intense anguish. In these situations, working in the dimension of logical time, as proposed by Lacan (1945/1998), is an analytical resource to treat the subject in a moment of rupture with the symbolic. Clinical listening allows an opening in time for the word in the face of the subjective turmoil aroused by the encounter of the real.

Keywords : psychoanalysis; hospital environment; health.
