The Power of Community Medicine: Dr Michelle Woolhouse and James Maskell

Published: Nov. 15, 2021, 1 p.m.

Imagine your patients getting together for an hour once a week, starting to build friendships, supporting each other and implementing the protocol that you gave them. That's powerful medicine. This week author, community builder, and healthcare entrepreneur James Maskell joins Dr Michelle Woolhouse for a conversation around how a community-based model of healthcare improves outcomes for patients, practitioners and society as a whole. They also discuss the potential for community medicine to combat the loneliness epidemic, how to effectively listen in a group setting, how to use the group dynamics to ensure success for all personality types, and how practitioners can get started implementing community care within their own practices.
