Victoria's Dr. Jerry Tenenbaum: Good Doctor, Bad Doctor?






With regards to the Canadian doctors, there have been many complaints about Dr. Jerry Tenenbaum.

Patient experience in health care

According to a research, the effective medication provided by the doctors is the most highlighted point that contributes to the patient’s satisfaction. Although there are varying comments about Dr. Jerry Tenenbaum, the most prominent criticism about Dr. Tenenbaum was that he lacks empathy for patients and likes to prescribe seemingly endless tests without redressing proper treatment.  In one occassion, after endless tests he igorned an elderly patient's treatment for months except for prescribing a nasal spray which had caused them to develop chronic high blood pressure which this patient had no history of before going to Dr. Tenenbaum.

Interpersonal skills improve healthcare outcomes

Patients are people who need doctor’s help in one hand and can be a dangerous weapon in another hand. Whatever the doctor gives will be affecting them in any ways.

Patients also consider interpersonal skills in their reviews.  Many patients said the doctor’s ‘beside manner’ is bad.

Medical error

Another thing that often raised as public issue in health care is malpractice. Some patients claim that things are getting worse after the medication by Dr. Jerry Tenenbaum, probably it is due to his hurry in doing his work. Since, no doubt that medical errors can be reduced if physician put more attention to the patients.

Creating patient’s satisfaction may difficult, but it will be more difficult to maintain it.
