There’s a lot noise around that AI is coming to takeover jobs of doctors. I feel that exceptional communication skills are the one of the thing that can give us an edge over AI. Patients come not just with diseased body but with also the expectation to be listened , to be told , to be understood. This is where this skill plays a role.

It goes without saying humans are social animals. So regardless of field it’s bare minimum that one needs to communicate with others in such a manner that others understand them. When it comes to medical field it becomes even more significant owing to the fact that medicos read typical scientific textbooks and journals with 5 and half years full of training which a layman couldn’t comprehend. Hence it’s on the medical fraternity to simplify and communicate with utmost clarity for best results and also to establish themselves as a trusted authority.
