title: Communication between doctors.
abstract: Efficient communication between doctors who are interdependently involved in the management of patients is vitally important to the quality of medical care. Misunderstandings can result in loss of mutual trust and waste of time and money, and, more importantly, they may be detrimental to patients' health or even life. Good communication increases doctors' professional satisfaction and sense of purpose.
