For Patients

Have you ever left a medical visit without:

 

  • Getting answers to all of your questions?

  • Knowing the details of your heart problem?

  • Understanding your treatment plan?

  • Meeting your goals for the visit?

If you answered YES to any of these questions, you are not alone.

Build Your Communication Skills

Rate statements to see your needed communication skills and watch short videos that demonstrate conversation techniques.

It may be helpful to think of one visit that did not go as well as you would have liked.

Rate this statement
The health care professional (HCP) did not know what I thought was causing my medical symptoms.
