How to Make Doctors Shut Up without Offending Them

"It's Hernia!"  "I almost fell off my chair when Dr. Oz (not his real name) blurted out his diagnosis on my son's medical condition - within the hearing distance of other patients in the waiting room.  I believe Dr. Oz did not mean to put my son in an embarrassing situation.  Ethics dictates that doctors should observe the highest level of oral privacy when it comes to the medical history of their patients.  Every doctor I've met, including Dr. Oz, has fully understood the confidential nature of their profession, however when the acoustics environment of a hospital or clinic is in bad shape, eavesdropping is possible."  This was Dianne Gore's experience, as narrated to this author.

"I hope I could have told Dr. Oz to shut up before my son's face turned crimson red!"  Really, how can you protect your privacy without offending your doctor?

There is where the use of white noise machine is necessary.  White noise machine produces "white noise" that aims to protect speech privacy by masking it.  What other people hear is only the low-level natural sound of white noise, which is soothing to the ears.

"White noise" has no structure because it is made up of several differing frequencies, and since it has no structure, the mind cannot understand it.  This is how speech privacy is achieved.

 "2 Ways to Get More Referrals" is a blog written by one patient who has noticed the immense need of telling doctors out there, in a subtle way, how their use of a white noise machine can improve their professional relationship with their patients.  Remember, it can take years to build one's profession in the field of medicine, and only a few disgruntled patients to wreck it.

If you are a doctor who wants to improve your clinic's acoustics, please check SpeechPrivacySystems.com for white noise machines for individual offices.
