What is Evidence Based?

Clinical Experience

Your personal professional experience while working with patients is a major part of Evidence Based Care.

The more you “see” the more you “know”

Patient Values and Expectations

Patient satisfaction is critical here – very few medical conditions are “cured”, most need to be managed.  High patient satisfaction rates helps to ensure compliance and patient buy in.
