3 Things Every Doctor Must Avoid!

We live in a society where many norms are for almost everything we do and feel and this is the place where we have to follow these rules to become a socially responsible citizen. Whether you are a doctor and any other professional, you might come across articles that state the things that you must be doing but you might have not seen articles informing you about the things that must be avoided at any cost.

Do not distribute your attention:

Doctors have got very busy recently and their attention is usually divided. Many seniors doctors believe that every doctor must be attentive and focused and give enough time to every patient. Patients are not physically unwell but they have so many things going on in their minds. You have to relax them by allowing them to talk to you about their health and comprehensively share their problem. If your attention will be divided, they will not feel comfortable talking to you about their issue. Therefore, make sure that you are paying enough attention to your patient.

Give them enough time:

Doctors have so many things to handle and they have to manage multiple things at the same time but they are not supposed to manage all the things in front of their patients. They must wait for the right time to manage other things as they are supposed to give enough time to their patients. This will also allow them to talk to you more about their issues and that too in detail.

Focus on what your patient has to say:

There are many cases where people have complained that their doctor did not consider the magnanimity of the issue and hushed off everything they told him by saying that this is not a big issue. Patients are normally sensitive and they are not ready or prepared for insensitive comments. Therefore, it is essential to have a sensitive approach towards them by not making their issue a trivial issue. You have to be strong enough and know that these issues are going to affect them psychologically and your patient cannot afford any psychological toll in this situation.
