The patients chief com­plaint is mere­ly a win­dow into a sit­u­a­tion which is usu­al­ly much more com­plex. It is impor­tant to under­stand all aspects of a patient and I always start with the per­son that is in front of me. What is impor­tant to you? Why are you here? What are you afraid of? How can I help? It is easy for me to move through exam­i­na­tion, inves­ti­ga­tion, and treat­ment. That is what I am trained in doing and well expe­ri­enced. All of this is impor­tant if a patient is to be suc­cess­ful­ly treat­ed and leave feel­ing bet­ter, health­i­er, under­stood and hopeful.
