User talk:NEUwikiLL/Doctor-patient relationship

Re-wrote many sentences and paragraphs to be more formal and less exact in tone (this is not a certain or factual topic in many cases); also added sources to both the Importance and Physician superiority sections, and linked a lot of other Wikipedia pages into certain words and phrases.

I think you've got a really great plan going! I definitely understand what you mean when you say some of the information is biased, and it seems like there is very little discussion of race overall with little mention of scientific research in that area. I also like that you added to the section on physician superiority, the power dynamic between a patient and the physician is something that isn't discussed enough and physicians can easily be dismissive of a person's complaints without consequence. It sounds like you want to add to the patient behavior section too and I'm wondering if there is any more info about the sort of self fulfilling prophecy of physicians mistreating patients which causes patients to act aggressively or not disclose information. I also saw that you were thinking of adding a section on physician preparedness perhaps under physician communication styles and I think that if you can find some sources that would be a great thing to incorporate. There might be some info out there about required courses in medical school or continuing eduction that discuss how to deal with more identity centered ideas. Overall a great start, I think you're going to make some great contributions to the page. StudentC820 (talk) 22:24, 29 March 2021 (UTC)
