“Navigating the Rise in Expectations. Strategies for Dealing with Increasing Patient Demands”


Multiple studies indicate that the conduct of medical professionals plays a greater role in legal disputes than the actual quality of their work. As consumerism and shared decision-making continue to shape the healthcare landscape, patients are becoming more empowered. This can pose challenges for practitioners who fail to adapt. The purpose of this lecture is to explore the factors that foster patient satisfaction and loyalty, identify causes of patient litigation, and provide strategies for managing difficult interactions with disgruntled patients.

Dr. Nikola Lekic


“Dental Treatment of Medically Compromised Patients”


This course will benefit the audience as it will review important medical conditions that dental practitioners will encounter in their daily work schedule. By reviewing specific medical conditions and their effect on dental treatment, both the public and professionals will benefit in improved patient management and care.
