When you go to the doctor does he or she take the time to listen to you? Do you feel safe in his or her office? Is it a place where you can let down your guard and be transparent? Unfortunately, many doctors don’t make the time to really connect with their patients and this can have a negative impact on health and wellness.

When selecting a doctor, be sure to ask how much time he or she plans on spending with you at each visit. It really does matter.
