Physical Exam... Art or Science?

I got asked this question on a podcast this week and my heart exploded! Seriously probably one of the coolest questions I’ve been asked. The beautiful short answer - BOTH.

The art is in the choosing of the correct exams, and the DOING the physical exams correctly, safely, and making your patient feel at ease.

The science is in the background knowledge of how the body works, interpretation of results, and choosing what to do next (treat, track, refer, or a combo).

Are you ready to take your physical exam practice to the next level?
