GPs and specialists often assess the quality of their practice management according to subjective criteria or indicators of patient satisfaction. But these benchmarks are far too general, unreliable and do not provide detailed, realistic information about the actual state of affairs.

Undiplomatic, clumsy, dismissive, toxic: the phrase “Yes, but…” is probably the most frequently used “killer phrase” in doctor-patient conversations.

A large proportion of GPs and specialists and their medical assistants complain about the daily work pressure as well as stress and demotivation that result from it. But on average it takes three years before concrete activities are started to put an end to the pressure of suffering. Half an hour of medical working time would be enough.
