Should be back in stock very soon
A new and creative way of thinking about the consultation in primary care, for both trainees and practising GPs
The book features a unique Two Houses model to help the reader move away from completing a series of tasks to focusing on the two key objectives at the heart of every consultation:
- Working out what matters (The House of Discovery)
- Deciding with the patient what to do about it (The House of Decision)
The GP Consultation Reimagined is based on the author's experience of teaching communication skills over 10 years as a GP Training Programme Director.
"This book will not teach you to improve your consultations. That is its great merit. Instead, it will encourage you to learn how to consult better." From the Foreword by Roger Neighbour
Excellent reading, a must for professionals like me
