Communication between doctors and patients is key, but often what is left unsaid is just as important, and messages from outside sources such as medical journals, drug companies, and other patients can affect how a doctor treats any one patient at any one time. This book outlines the non-specific factors that come into play when doctors and patients interact, how both doctors and patients can overcome these messages to focus in on the health of the person sitting on the table, and how psychological factors in both the doctor and the patient can affect medical outcomes. Anyone hoping to improve the medical care they give or the medical care they get will find in these pages strategies for improving those results"--Provided by publisher. 606 $aPhysician and patient 606 $aPatient participation 606 $aMedical offices 606 $aPatients$xPsychology 606 $aPhysicians$xPsychology 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aPhysician and patient. 615 0$aPatient participation. 615 0$aMedical offices. 615 0$aPatients$xPsychology. 615 0$aPhysicians$xPsychology. 676 $a610.69/6 700 $aLeavitt$b Jessica$f1970-$0909810 701 $aLeavitt$b Fred$0909811 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456696803321 996 $aImproving medical outcomes$92035935 997 $aUNINA
