Dealing with a physician's vague feedback is challenging. How can you effectively address this issue?

A título personal, como médico de primer contacto, el tener buena comunicación con el paciente, formar un vínculo desde la primer consulta es invaluable para un buen diagnóstico, tratamiento y pronostico, el escuchar claramente lo que te dice el paciente y buscar que el paciente te entienda es vital para llevar de manera adecuada una consulta con calidad y calidez y que mi paciente siga un plan terapéutico adecuado, el no escuchar, ni retroalimentar los comentarios además de estar mal, da una mala percepción de la consulta, no hace quedar mal como profesionales de la salud y peor aún puede tener consecuencias en la salud del paciente, así que es mejor escuchar, analizar y retroalimentar al paciente en la consulta.
