Ep. 13: Seeing a GP about mental health with Dr. Shiromi

In today’s special episode, we are joined by Dr Shiromi. With over 15 years of experience in the medical field, Dr Shiromi is a distinguished Fellow of the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners. In addition, she has dedicated considerable time to the study of psychological strategies. We will be discussing Cloud GP for Patients – a resource designed to help individuals prepare for a mental health consultation with their GP. The tool includes a list of common questions that GPs might ask during the consultation, such as those relating to symptoms, lifestyle, and stressors. Our discussion will centre on mental health and the importance of building rapport with healthcare providers. We’ll also explore the benefits of preparing in advance for GP appointments – which can lead to improved outcomes and reduced stress. Finally, we will emphasise the value of establishing a strong connection between patients and their healthcare providers, and how this can significantly enhance the support and care patients receive.
