This is just something I wanted to add - when working with dementia patients, we have been trained to make emissions of truth. So for example, if a dementia patient asks "when is my husband coming?" and you know that her husband is dead, you would reply "he's coming later", rather than cause her the unnecessary distress and suffering associated with telling her that he is dead. The patient might not have full capacity to understand what death means, and so if multiple healthcare professionals continue to emphasise to her that he is dead, then this would cause her worse health outcomes via unnecessary emotional distress and potential re-traumatisation. The benefits of emission of truth, in this case, would outweigh the harms of telling the patient overtly that her husband is dead. This is also a good example because it shows how what is good practice can change - in the past, it would have been best practice to tell such a patient that her husband was, in fact, dead, but now having studies that indicate worse health outcomes and higher rates of depression in such a population, the standard practice has changed to reflect this. In such a scenario, you have to weigh up the ethics of making an emission of truth in order to protect the wellbeing of the patient, the ethics of honesty in situations where patients are known to lack capacity and to what extent you can follow GMC guidance that says a healthcare professional should not knowingly lie in these types of situations. All of which is not easy! xD
This guy honestly has the best videos, any topic I can think of that would be useful to know for my med school interview, hes done it! Thanks a bunch🙌🏾
My doctor says I have no problems but I started experiencing pain in back, going blind in one eye, pain, seizing and cramping after a spinal tap. in limbs but I know better!
I complained about a consultant lies,All that happened I started the ball rolling for ''Black Listing'',my GP of 40 years,dumped me and its going down hill ever since,thank fully I found GP that Give me meds for COPD and heart failure,humiliation is a powerful deterrant
I'm sorry, but I think he missed the absolute most common form of physician lying and that's lies of self-interest. The easiest example is the hysteria surrounding pain killers. A patient is legitimately in pain and the physician knows that anti-inflammatories won't do anything, but prescribing a low level narcotic would draw attention from governing bodies, so he prescribes the NSAID and kicks them out as quickly as possible. Patients lie to protect themselves and their careers ALL THE TIME.
Iv just had a child pyschologist at Great Ormond Street make a recommendation on my parenting although he's never spoke or met to me , he wrote on this report it was wrote in march he has also confirmed this date to be accurate , yet in a family court case where my ex has a social worker the SW asked my ex for consent for this report to be released, this happened in the January 2 months before the child pyschologist claims to have wrote this report, I have evidence from barristers to cafcass have all created a scenario where coincidentally they all gain financially whilst I get legally gagged , it's been an experience
Two out of my past three doctors have each lied up a sh/tload. The first one was a full blown NPD. The other one just thought he was smarter than me. I don’t know why people keep trying me.

This is a fantastic example, thank you so much! Will add it to the online article that goes with the video if you're willing!
@@OllieBurtonMed Hi! Yes, feel free to add this to the article! :D
But this allows bad doctor to do what they want
I’ve worked at a nursing home training for direct care. I loved them all.

surprised at the lack of subs/views for this quality content, this is bloody brilliant

lovely video 😄 from a patients perspective, I'd trust my doctor to know when it is suitable to lie to me.
you deserve 1m subscribers omg these are very useful

How are you now?
And sometimes doctors lie because they're afraid of a lawsuit

actually its illegal to diagnose without the patient saying anything in a mental sycward. Says on google
Really
