"Wish Worry Wonder"

How do you talk with patients when the stakes are high? Can you establish trust with the patient, without taking away their hope, and aligning their wishes and goals with the medical treatment options we offer?

In this episode, we will talk about how the words we choose to communicate with patients allow us to have more meaningful conversations such that both parties get the best outcome possible. Patients empowered to make meaningful decisions and physician being able to deliver bad news without feeling overwhelmed or a sense of abandoning their patient.
