PHILADELPHIA (KYW Newsradio) — Good communication, in general, is good for us. Effective communication can help us in our relationships, in the workplace, and in other social settings.

When it comes to our overall health, good communication is critical. It is important at many levels. The more that you share with your doctor, the better your treatment plans will be.

Just as at home, clear and effective communication in the doctor’s office can help clear up problems early, before they add to stress and contribute to potential bad decisions.
