@C7RKY@RichmondDoc I think there needs to be shift in doc patient relationship given we all have more information -
@fragpasty@RichmondDoc I can tell you now, my family & I get excellent service from NHS, since I made a point of learning all about consent -
@C7RKY@RichmondDoc don't see why NHS docs get upset when questioned. The good ones don't. -
@fragpasty@richmonddoc Really good ones have changed their mind, when presented with evidence which contradicts the info they've been fed. -
@C7RKY@fragpasty Agree with all your comments about choice, pt empowerment, pt engagement, etc. also agree many docs easily influenced. -
