The Article in Brief
Communication between doctors and patients is an important part of medical care. A limited amount of research has examined methods for changing the way that doctors and patients communicate in an office visit and how those methods affect patient health. A new study summarized this research and found that many approaches can influence communication between doctors and patients, and may improve patient health.
