Patient-Doctor Communication

Patient-doctor communication is the exchange of information between a healthcare provider and a patient. It involves the patient sharing their symptoms, concerns, and medical history, while the doctor listens, asks questions, and explains diagnosis and treatment options. Effective communication builds trust, ensures mutual understanding, and helps patients make informed decisions about their health. Clear, respectful dialogue encourages patients to be honest and engaged, ultimately leading to better health outcomes. Good communication is essential for accurate diagnosis, appropriate care, and a positive healthcare experience for both parties.
