Today's Tip: Ask Your Doctor

Most doctors are working under factory-like conditions these days,

and it's often difficult to get all your health concerns addressed

in the short time available. Be an assertive patient. I can't stress

enough the importance of being able to talk to your doctor openly.

If for some reason you don't feel comfortable, or if you don't share

the same philosophies for managing your health, much of your time

together will be wasted, and you may want to look for a new doctor.

To open the dialogue for better care, ask about your doctor's

medical training, hospital and research hospital affiliations,

office services and the number of years he or she has been in

practice, as well as how they view their role in your care. It will

be time well spent.
