Dear Patient,  This episode was produced and directed for you! For each and every one of our patients. From those we see in the outpatient clinics to those we admit in the hospital and even those we tend to in urgent care.  We wanted to take this opportunity to educate and enlighten our patients on some of the basics of healthcare.  Every physician has had the thoughts we verbalize in this episode.    From inhalers to antibiotics, from bed placement to billing each of us take time to share one or two pearls of wisdom and explain how things really occur and what every patient should know when seeking care.   We discuss why knowing the names of your medications and why you are taking them is so very important, Why following our instructions is key for your improvement.  We talk about the cost of medications and hospital visits and who is really in control of the bill.   This episode presents the physician's perspective, in an effort to help our patients see both sides of the coin.  Dr Akua Ampadu, Dr Kandice Waul Bennett, Dr Emily Shay and Dr Kristen Scatliffe have a fun and honest discourse we hope you enjoy. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/mdfeme-inc/support
