Issues for Doctors: A Solution

 

• One problem

• Ten minutes

  
  
• Doctors serious about keeping consultations to under ten minutes –
  aim for 5 to 7 minute consultations.
• Don't feel guilty about short consultations: these are expected of you.

  
  
  

• YOU MUST CONTROL AGENDAS
  Do important things first:
  If you are looking after yourself, you are looking after the patient.
  What could kill or really hurt this patient :
  look at these first and only -- no matter what you think the diagnosis may be.
  It's easy to get it wrong.
  
  
• Doctor - Can you count to one?:
  It's not the patients fault, if they can’t count to one:
  You(the Doctor) have a lot more education:
  • Tell them the rules and
  • don’t feel sorry about it.

   

All you can do – is all you can do – and that’s all you can do.
