Advice from an empowered patient #shorts

“If doctors were to see patients like yourself, definitely empowered, bringing in your data and suggestions for therapy that a physician may not be comfortable with. What kind of advice do you have for us to better listen to you?”

My first advice would be to evaluate what we've brought you. So when I'm there with imaging results, radiotherapy, or radiological report.

I'm there with my blood test results and have graphed them. That's hard data that can't be disputed as being factual. So if you're presented with that, take a moment with that, even though it's outside of this clinical practice, take a moment with it and look at it and say, “What am I looking at here?”
