Episode 22 of the imPACt Podcast - Patient-Centered Care

Join me (Fionna), Shira and Caitlyn as we talk with special podcast guests - Dr. Hilary Michel and Dr. Ashish Patel - about patient-centered care from both the provider and patient perspectives. 

"Knowing what a patient's goals are, what their values are, what's important to them and trying to shape how we take care of that person with those things in mind." - Dr. Michel

"All coming to an agreement on how we want to move forward in that patient and family's care." - Dr. Patel

"It's important that we also know that as owners of our bodies we are also the experts, and I think patient-centered care does a really important job of integrating that." - Shira

In episode 22 of the imPACt podcast, we discuss the patient-provider relationship, language, and empowerment and the roles these play in patient-centered care. Tune in to hear great insights from the providers on how they think about building trust and using language to build strong patient-provider relationships and cultivate patient-centered care in clinic 💚💙
