EPISODE SUMMARY:

When it comes to any relationship, it takes two people to make it work. And, a doctor-patient relationship is no different – both people have a role to play in communicating, which helps build trust. This week, we look at how you can create or improve a relationship with your doctor by talking with guests from both sides: Dr. Maria Hale, a patient experience expert at Optum, and Omase Lassey, a patient and health advocate.
