Sometimes what your patient really needs is your time and attention.
This, of course, is not just true in your medical practice but applies to your life in general.
We get so caught up with things that can be measured. We look to our prescriptions pads for the answer.
But I will tell you this: What people need is to feel listened to and to know that you value their opinion.
We are often in such a hurry to get to the next patient. I understand this is usually not your fault. But if you take the time to give the patient what they truly need, you will have an office full of patients.
Patients that are healthier and better off because you gave them what they really needed.
Not just another prescription.
