Patient Doctor Health Status
Doctors do more talking than listening.1 Marvel KM et al in (JAMA) found that 72% of the doctors interrupted the patient’s opening statement after an average of 23 seconds. Patients who were allowed to state their concerns without interruption used only an average of 6 more seconds.2 Doctors often ignore the patient’s emotional health. A study of 21 doctors at an urban, university-based clinic found that when patients dropped emotional clues or talked openly about emotions, the doctor seldom acknowledged their feelings. Instead the conversation was directed back to technical talk.3 Doctor-Patient Relationship: What Evidence Show 1. Korsch, Barbara M. & Harding, C.

Doctors underestimate the amount of information patients want and overestimate how much they actually give. In one study of 20-minute office visits, doctors spent about 1 minute per visit informing patients but believed they were spending 9 minutes per visit doing so. 4 Doctors who can’t communicate are more likely to end up in court. An analysis of 45 malpractice cases found that many of the doctors being sued delivered information poorly and devalued the patient’s views. 5 Doctor-Patient Relationship: What Evidence Show 4.
