Navigating the Journey: Understanding the Patient-Doctor Relationship in Surgical Care
The decision to undergo surgery, particularly a procedure as significant as bariatric or advanced general surgery, is a deeply personal one. It’s not just about a physical transformation; it’s a journey that profoundly impacts your emotional and mental well-being, and at the heart of this journey lies the crucial element – the patient-doctor relationship.
