5 out of 5 stars Essential   February 14, 2008
 6 out of 6 found this review helpful

There are 2 books every doctor in training needs to read before becoming a General Practitioner; Pendleton's and this one.

This book is a little hard to read and contains a large amount of information and knowledge. The first part of the book analyses the reasons why some consultations are successful and others aren't. The author explains the concept of the TWO HEADS and then proposes a structural approach to the consultation.

The five steps are not only logical and useful but they are easy to practice. Each topic is accompanied by tips to develop communication skills, mainly rapport building, empathy and influencing skills.

The final chapter of the book explore how to put all the skills in to practice.

This is a hard book to read with nearly 300 pages of dense material and can take a long time to read, but overall is incredibly useful in order to improve the satisfaction of both Doctors and patients in primary care.



4 out of 5 stars THE textbook for all GPs   February 14, 2007
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

If you are a GP or a GP registrar F1 or F2 in training with aspirations to enter general practice then you NEED to buy this book.
Roger Neighbour's book is essential reading material for all aspiring GPs and is well written and easily digested.
The nuts and bolts of the consultation is explored in depth in an easy to understand manner and he explains the thought processes going through the doctor's mind clearly and expertly.
If you want to understand how your GP should be thinking subconciously then you too should buy this book.



5 out of 5 stars Great book for a whole new look at consultations   July 3, 2001
 5 out of 5 found this review helpful

Neighbour gives you a whole new and definitely refressing look at consultations. It looks odd at first glance, but when you practice it you will see that it works. Highly recommended for GP's, GP registrars and any medical professional, who doesn't have much time, but want his/her consultation to be more productive and interesting.

4 out of 5 stars This is a valuable book for all consultants   May 11, 1999
 4 out of 4 found this review helpful

This is a valuable book for general practitioners and consultants of all types. It offers a simple formula for a consulting 'journey' that focuses not only on transfer of understanding but also on transfer of ownership. The case illustrations and pictures are amusing and helpful.

Where the book falls down is in its rather uncritical adoption of the notions of Neural Linguistic Programming.
