Abstract

The author discusses the challenges confronting medical practitioners when adhering to evidence-based guidelines and a medical approach that physicians can apply when confronted with resistance from a patient. He explains that practitioners are more inclined to providing patient-centered care. He encourages physicians to determine the true concerns of their patients and to provide them with information from which their rationale is based. The author also proposes a treatment contingency plan.
