This article explores the foundational concept of patient-centered care within the context of general practice, emphasizing its crucial role in healthcare. Patient-centered care involves recognizing patients as partners in their healthcare journey and tailoring services to meet their unique needs and preferences. The core principles of effective communication, shared decision-making, respect for patient preferences, continuity of care, and accessibility are discussed, highlighting their significance in fostering positive doctor-patient relationships and improving health outcomes. The article underscores the importance of patient satisfaction and treatment adherence as direct outcomes of implementing patient-centered care in general practice. Ultimately, the focus is on creating a more inclusive, collaborative, and efficient healthcare experience for both patients and healthcare providers.
