What is the information received from the patient or people around him during a medical examination called?

I was fortunate enough to find a doctor who not only cares about my history but when she first met me drew my family tree and asked about their medical history as well. She’s one of the best doctors I have ever had.

I’ve been a nurse over 22 years and never heard of this before!!!

I’ve had very caring and compassionate doctors, they listen to my complaints and concerns. They are interested in my health and seem to want me to get well.

I have been fortunate in my life to have had a most wonderful Family Doctor for 40+ years. Of the 20+ "Specialists" with a few PCP's mixed in due to Insurace changes, only 2 were Inept, as per my own comparatively limited educational perspective. If student loans are to be forgiven; Teachers, Doctors, Healthcare Professionals, 1st Responders and truly valuable contributing degrees should top the list, (which I don't possess). No offense intended.

I was a medical transcriptionist for 33 years and never heard the word. 😳

Player #5526107, I've been a nurse since 1993 and never heard these terminologies.

Syn, Same here!

Syn, Neither have I. I know that it wasn't included in our medical terminology classes. Hmmm...

Syn, sure you have heard of anamnezis vitae and anamnezis morbidi.

I hate The way Americas do medicine. I do Not want Their drugs. It should be prohibited for The Pharma companies to Advertise Their products.

In a Yoga Studio I Went to, I Had to Report a shrink to The Police because she would Not Stop hounding me to Take her drug.
