The doctor-patient relationship is one of the most critical elements in delivering effective and compassionate care. Research shows trust and communication between doctors and patients can significantly influence treatment outcomes, patient satisfaction, and adherence to medical advice. However, in today’s fast-paced health care environment, cultivating meaningful connections can often feel challenging.
Psychiatrist Dr. Rana Jawish joins Austen and Alizah to explore the art of fostering genuine relationships in medicine. They discuss the importance of maintaining humanity in the brief but impactful moments shared with patients, navigating the inherent power dynamic between doctor and patient, and the need to validate and respect each individual’s experience.
