Practitioner Health Medical Director Dr Zaid Al-Najjar is joined by doctor, educator, and award-winning writer Dr John Launer to discuss uncertainty in medicine and healthcare - an aspect of the profession that can cause increasing feelings of stress.
Zaid and John cover uncertainty in providing care to patients, the importance of asking open questions, burnout and uncertainty, and ways to manage uncertainty, including reflective practice.
