Keep an open mind. Everything you have to
say is of interest to me and your feedback
and response to the treatment guides me in
refining your treatment plan. Your
involvement is an integral part of the
healing process. There is clear evidence
that when people feel actively involved in
the treatment, there is a more beneficial
outcome.
You will be asked about your symptoms
