Clinical Communication Skills in Medicine 1st Edition

Clinical Communication Skills in Medicine, 1st Edition by Ernest Suresh is a practical, evidence-based guide designed to sharpen the conversations that matter most in healthcare. Clear, compassionate communication is as vital as clinical knowledge—this book arms medical students, junior doctors, nurses and allied health professionals with the tools to connect, inform and support patients across diverse settings.

Begin with concise frameworks for structured consultations and history-taking, then move into real-world scenarios covering informed consent, breaking bad news, shared decision-making, challenging consultations and cross-cultural care. Each chapter combines step-by-step techniques, attention to nonverbal cues, and strategies for building trust—helping clinicians reduce misunderstandings, improve adherence and foster safer, more patient-centered care.

Written with an international perspective, the book aligns with contemporary medical education and is applicable in hospitals, primary care and emergency departments across the UK, US, Europe and beyond. It emphasizes practical skills for workplace communication, interprofessional teamwork and reflective practice—ideal for those preparing for exams, clinical assessments or daily patient encounters.

Readable, authoritative and action-oriented, Ernest Suresh presents communication as a teachable clinical competency rather than an innate talent. If you want measurable improvements in consultation quality, patient satisfaction and clinical outcomes, this title is an essential addition to your professional library.
