summary

The use of phenomenology in health research is an approach that

focuses on the personal and subjective experiences of individuals.
Phenomenology differs from other approaches in that it does not seek
causal explanations but instead focuses on essential, subjective
aspects of experience.
In short, phenomenology in health research focuses on understanding
and describing the lived experiences of individuals, seeking to capture
their true meaning and value in terms of health. It is an approach that
allows for the exploration of subjective and difficult to measure
aspects, while complementing more traditional research methods in
the medical field.

Inferential

The relationship between doctor and patient is important. Regardless

of what others think from my perspective, if we form a bond, we can
make part of our work easier. And we allow our patient to express
themselves safely, of course from the moment we start our career we
must take it into account because otherwise it will cost us work when
caring for a patient.
Thought

I have scientific thinking and it is very difficult for me to choose the

doctor-patient relationship but I know that it is important and the truth
is that I am developing it because if I provide security to the patient, I
have a greater chance of giving him the appropriate treatment and
being able to have positive results. We must always remember that
people have a soul and we are not a machine.
