Event Details
In a world bombarded by advertising and before-and-afters, patients have higher
expectations of treatment outcomes than ever before. Being able to assess, and if
necessary modify, these expectations is essential to a successful outcome for both
patients and the clinician. The use of simulated treatment outcomes can help motivate
patients to go through with treatment, but also help clinicians determine whether their
patient’s expectations are realistic or not.
At the end of this session, participants will be able to:
Š Recognise whether patent expectations may be realistic or not
Š Understand the importance of assessing patent expectations in achieving a
successful outcome
Š Understand and implement different techniques and methods that can be used to
assess patent expectations.
