When doctors and patients talk: making sense of the consultation

When doctors and patients talk: making sense of the consultation:
This report explores the main form of interaction between a patient and a clinician - the consultation. It offers an analysis of the current relationship and describes the potential for a more nuanced model for the consultation. It makes recommendations for commissioning bodies and service providers to develop programmes that will boost patient skills and confidence and also to support doctors who are keen to experiment with new ways of working.
