UAE communication problem
United Arab Emirates: Sunday, October 22 - 2006 at 08:07
Health officials have said many doctors in the UAE do not communicate clearly with their patients and fail to inform them fully of potential risks prior to medical procedures, reported Gulf News. It has also been claimed that some doctors do not reveal all the facts for fear of patients deciding against treatment and thus losing out on income. Officials stressed it is a patient's right to receive a full explanation.
