  • 📅 Highlights from Our Recent Webinar on Enhancing Patient Experience 🎤 On September 5th, Healthmug hosted an insightful webinar for our Doctors Connect community, focusing on "Enhancing Patient Experience During Consultation." Dr. Mohit Aggarwal led a valuable discussion that emphasized improving patient interaction, satisfaction, and retention. Here are some key takeaways from the meeting: 🔹 Making Patients Comfortable: Doctors should warmly greet patients, offer them a seat, and create a welcoming environment. For younger patients, offering a sweet treat can ease their anxiety. 🔹 Personalized Approach: Address patients by their names and use clear, understandable language. This personal touch not only builds rapport but also enhances the clarity of communication. 🔹 Clear Communication: Effective listening and maintaining eye contact are crucial. Most diagnostic insights come from patient conversations, so clear and empathetic communication is essential. 🔹 Thorough Medical History: Dive deeper into a patient’s personal and family medical history. Understanding past illnesses, surgeries, and medications provides a comprehensive view of the patient’s health. 🔹 Document Review: Always review any documents or reports brought by patients. Even if not strictly necessary, this practice builds trust and shows thoroughness. 🔹 Detailed Diagnosis and Explanation: Offer a clear diagnosis and utilize diagrams or visuals when explaining. This not only helps patients understand their condition better but also fosters trust. 🔹 Physical Examination: Conduct basic physical exams to reassure patients that they are receiving a thorough check-up, even if it seems unnecessary. 🔹 Lifestyle Advice: Provide practical advice related to the patient’s condition, including recommendations for lifestyle changes to support their health. 🔹 Requesting Diagnostic Reports: Avoid assumptions—ask for updated diagnostic reports when needed to ensure accurate assessments. 🔹 Record Keeping: Maintain detailed and accurate patient records to facilitate efficient follow-ups and save time. 🔹 Referrals to Specialists: Be transparent and refer patients to specialists when necessary, especially for chronic conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, and thyroid disorders. 📅 Don’t Miss Our Next Webinar! Join us for Part 3 of our series on September 12th, 2024, from 3 PM to 4 PM on Microsoft Teams.
