Douglas Drossman, MD and Johannah Ruddy, MEd, co- authors of the new book Gut Feelings: Disorders of Gut Brain Interaction and the Patient/Doctor Relationship discuss the themes of the book written for both patients and providers with a live virtual audience. They discuss the impact of dualism on the Western health care model and the negative effects that has had on patient care and increased provider burnout.
They also discuss how improving engagement, using a biopsychosocial approach to patient care and a patient centered model can improve outcomes and satisfaction for both providers and patients alike.
