If you've been a clinician for any significant period of time, you will know exactly what I mean when I refer to the demanding patient.   But how much time have you spend discussing how to manage one?

This episode of The Clinician's Survival Guide discusses:

• What we mean by the demanding patient
• What underlies this behaviour
• Why it's absolutely NOT appropriate to give in (in most cases)
• How to approach the consultation
• How to refuse their demand
• What might help the consultation end positively
