The Fifteen Minute Hour Reviews

The book continues to expound on the BATHE concept (Background situation, patient Affect, what is most Troubling for the patient, how the patient is Handling the problem, and the physician's Empathy). Chapters discuss understanding the context of the office visit and the social aspects of the patient-physician interaction; how to promote wellness during the visit; pearls for brief counseling sessions; managing difficult patients; and wrapping up the visit and integrating treatments.

The time constraints in modern outpatient care have become onerous and this is a valuable resource in developing personal strategies to maximize clinicians' time with patients, to stay on focus, and to minimize the risk of clinician burnout.
