Problem
How do you feel about the transition from the traditional, "paternalistic" culture to a more patient-centered environment? If you feel this is a good thing, tell me why you feel that way. Are there any potential downsides? For example, do you think you can ever truly be well enough informed to make good decisions? After all, if you haven't been to medical school, can you really objectively understand the science behind your disease/condition/procedure?
