Physician Patient Observation Report for
John Bently, MD Prepared by Physician Coach
Observation Dates: June 8, 2013 Report Date: June 21, 2013
I visited Dr. Bently’s office on the above date at the St. Mary’s location. Dr. Bently was very welcoming and open to the shadowing experience and worked with me to find a day that would be optimal for shadowing. It is fortunate to have a provider that reaches out to our Hmong community and I am sure his patients appreciate having someone that understands their language, social structure and customs, religious beliefs and support systems. Providing culturally competent health care in this population continues to be a challenge in the region; it was not hard to understand why his patients feel connected and loyal to him. I was able to shadow four different patients, all English speaking with a good variety of cultural backgrounds and medical concerns. It was a fascinating session and it was great to witness the strong connection that Dr. Bently had with all of his patients. Introduction/Greeting: Dr. Bently offered a very friendly environment and focused on eliciting and responding to the patient’s personal experience of his illness or concerns. He started out with non-medical conversation and employed a strong emphasis on communication and building provider-patient relationships. For example, during a physical with his first patient he inquired about how he was coping with his wife’s death and how his 14 year old daughter was doing. He knew the personal stories of all of his patients and often told me a little bit about their background personally and medically before the visit. His communication and respect toward the patients signified positive regard, trust and caring. Care was tailored to the individual patient, according to the unique attributes of their personality.
