George Bernard Shaw once said that “the single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place.” This can be especially applied to the communication between the doctor and the patient. In his lecture dr Peter Washer will talk about the necessities of learning how to communicate with the patients.

Among other things, he will touch upon:

•    the benefits of elear communication;

•    talking to patients from different cultures, especially the effects of culture on clinical communication

•    giving information and managing uncertainty.

The talk will consist of a lecture followed by a Q&A session.
