Abstract:
The value of the practitioner's communication skills in the consultation is widely recognised. Many authors support communication skills training for general practice in such areas as public health, patient satisfaction, malpractice litigation, compliance, somatisation and clinical outcomes in chronic illness. There are many reports of the success of communication skills training worldwide for medical students, general practice trainees and experienced general practitioners.
