Every new medical student needs to see this when training. It would be useful for all other health care professionals to view as well - having 'been' a patient with pain, I wish my doctor was as forward thinking as Professor Bas Bloem! EXCELLENT, and more please
Really inspired by Dr Bloem's inspiring talk at the recent Parkinson's conference in Singapore and I am really glad that his message was conveyed in this short video, allowing me to show and spread the message to my fellow friends in both singapore and hong kong.
I was thrilled watching your lecture. I worked for 18 years at a Brazilian Hospital and continued providing services in a medical environment for some years after that. Today, as a therapist and after experience so many aspects of medicine, I absolutely agree with you. I hope I can witness this closeness between doctors and patients wishing that the greater motivation will be the love for life and not money or prestige. Thus, it is possible to take care of life and not just the disease.
transitioning from pill pushers to hope providers is vital for the health field, a blended cross over with the finest that traditional medicine already provides.
Indeed, neurology doctors most time can see their Parkinson patients only in their office cube and only if those are in “on”-mode. But it is always good to be able to show them the “off”-status as well as activities like riding a three-wheel-bike, or walking stairs, or drinking, speaking, etc. My wife have 23years now with that disease . First 10 years she used a bigwheel hudora scooter to move thru town more easy.
What a wonderful attitude to have , I have met 6 Neurologists so far and only one with a similar bed side manner as expressed in this video . . Kudos. .
what a legend. i saw Dr Bloem talk at the Parkinson's conference in Syd this year and he was so entertaining and informative. pity he is in the netherlands otherwise my Dad (a PD patient) would be first on his list!
Now if we would just begin to get paid for sitting down with the patient ... but, oh no, gotta bring in between $400-$600K in primary care in order to pay the nurses, administrators, bills and ourselves. Really promotes the churn as you can see a lot more patients and keep the COO's happy with very little downside. We really need an innovation in reimbursement and then change will happen fast.
If only ... if only all doctors shared this view. If only .... there was a way to go "view" the qualifications of the treating physician to see if the box "believes in Participatory Medicine" was checked BEFORE you picked that doctor! I believe in "if only" ...
con't from prev. message Getting participation in Asian countries might be a challenge too as Asians, in particularly the older generation, often like receiving passive treatment and to be told what to do. I guess engaging really require a sufficient amount of time with patients which is very often a limiting factor. Yet , I am really hopeful and I guess the change of practice takes time and I strongly believe that it should start now...
It's a pity that in my country English is a problem with patients as well as doctors. It would be great if they could see and understand the video. Could anyone give me some advice whether it's possible to have it translated into local language? rasma
What an inspiring talk. Passion, compassion and humor are true medicines. Thank you Dr Bloem.

A must watch for every health care provider and patient.

I agree to 100 % and I liked the way it was presented. I make this a favorite. Leif
It is the best video I have ever seen
Should see the documentary “root cause” I think there are some keys in there

Brilliant
