Patient-Centered Interviewing

 

Drs. Auguste Fortin, Associate Professor of Medicine at the Yale University School of Medicine and Sheira Schlair, Internal Medicine Associate Program Director at Montefiore Medical Center in the Bronx, taught nearly 150 residents, medical students and faculty how to build efficiency and effectiveness through integrated patient- and doctor-centered interviewing. In just ten minutes, a physician can elicit the patient’s entire biopsychosocial story behind the visit, arrive at the diagnosis, and impress upon patients her care and compassion.

The CIR Policy and Education Initiative (CIR PEI) sponsored The Art of Medicine: A Physician-Patient Communication Conference on November 19, 2011 at the New York Academy of Medicine.
