Improving the clinical consultation

The conventional method of the face to face clinical consultation to start an association between a doctor and a patient has both pros and cons. With incessant traffic jams, the trip to a doctor’s clinic is time consuming. The doctor may get caught up in an emergency which might result in a lengthy wait for the patient or cancellation of the consultation altogether. No wonder, this is highly tiresome. If the doctor is not at his cheerful best owing to some complication with another patient , a direct meeting might not be the best way to review your case. An extremely busy doctor with plenty of pending cases might liberally use complicated medical terms in his hurry , without giving an understandable explanation for the same. Reportedly, due to the strain of the consultation, most patients forget what the doctor said.

On the other hand, a face to face consultation allows the patient to judge the doctor, the atmosphere of the clinic, the behaviour of the staff and how comfortable it is likely to be for a patient. Most importantly, a patient can clearly eliminate any chances that a clinic might cheat him. Besides, a direct consultation will help the patient assess the doctor’s behaviour by the bedside, and whether they can effectively associate for a healthy professional relationship.
