Aging at Home Caregivers

Broad Clinical Interviews

Broad Clinical Interviews
When I evaluate a new patient, I work to compress data collection and screen time on the front end of the visit so I can free up the remainder of the visit for face-to-face discussion and shared decision making. This intentional visit design is necessary because of the realities of modern clinic schedules. And so the questions I ask and their sequence is important to my understanding as well as the experience of the patient.

The art of medicine consists of amusing the patient while nature cures the disease.

Role of a Family Caregiver

In medicine there are clinical interview questions that deliver high impact nuggets at low-cost. This is one of them. This question exposes critical data that, in the background, often drives my initial approach to diagnostics and therapy. If you are a health professional try it and you’ll see. Clearly, there are clinical specialty visits that are more transactional where open-ended questions are not as critical. A good example would be consultation with a surgeon for hernia repair where the task at hand is unequivocal. (Source: 33charts.com)

 Though i am not into review writing, but couldn’t resist this one. Dr NITIN saved me from a major surgery which was planned over on the name of nervous breakdown by a major hospital of the city, he rather stated to me clearly that there’s no need of such and only stitches were required, i am really grateful to him. I definitely would suggest this clinic.

Dr. Nitin is a wonderful person and even better surgeon. I met him for my hernia surgery. He did it laparoscopicaly and i was back to my work within 3 days of my surgery. Thanks to him and his team for taking so best care of me and making my surgical experience so nice and smooth. I would definitely recommend Dr. Nitin for his patient listening and friendly nature.
