1. Big words… Let’s see… I dunno, really? I’m not interested in the medical feild but… All I know of is that it’s very importent to take care of and saving other lives.

2. They should underswtand of the dealings and situations Native Americans and Native Hawaiians are going through. Like… Help the sick and the wounded.

3. They should ask us of what’s going on with other Natives and why is this happening to them.

4. I had a good experience at Western U. I have learned that animators, also, used anatomy and have studied anatomy and use this study for their characters and how it functions them. I really LOVED that class. xDD I wanna study and animate my characters. 😛

Western University questions.

What’s the ideal doctor-patient relationship?

A doctor should understand a bit about you, in a way you can’t approach every patient the same way. Some patients would want to be more up front while others may want more of a friend basis.

What should your doctor know about you and/or your people?

Diabetes is all too common in our people. Some may hold the old traditions and not like pills and other kinds of modern day treatments.

What type of questions should your doctor have for you?

Questions about eating habits and exercise are very important, make sure to address the risk of Diabetes.

Any good or bad experiences with doctors?

Most of my visits with doctors have been well, though I know a friend who has been treated horribly due to mental illnesses and the reactions people give her because of that. Many doctors became very hostile towards her when she told them she had decided against taking medicines, only because they all had bad side effects as well. We live in a world very based around the belief that a simple pill can fix anything and everything, though that is not entirely so. Doctors should be ready to help guide a patient towards a path to better help without the wish of medicine if the patient so chooses, peacefully.

What is my ideal physician?

  • Friend who won’t lie to you, send you off with just regular antibiotics, cares for your well being, and let you know if there is a problem.

what should my doctor know about me and my people?

  • Native Americans have a higher risk of diabetes, some native Americans have a different life style than other people, Families may also yield some sickness that they may not know about.

What questions should a doctor have?

  • What kind of foods do you eat? Do you know of anything that runs in the family and kind of sickness?

Any good or bad experiences with doctors

  • When my cat was suffering from a urinary blockage we had him taken to the vet and they cleared it out and he was fine, i was relieved they were able to flush out the blockage and enabled him to use the bathroom properly if we had waited longer he wouldn’t have made it.
  • When i was a little baby i had an odd infection in my throat i was taken to the hospital to have it taken out, i am very grateful it was taken out or i would have had white lumps on my throat

 

Western First Day

The first day at Western was awesome I learned about diabetes and healthy issues. I also learned about animation about animals, characters, and anatomy an  aniimation characters. The relationship with doctors  and patients should be based in a  good understanding  with one another. Some ways of doing that  would be asking question about thier culture and backgrounds. The doctor should ask the patients if they take any medication our have any other health issues.Doctors also need to be generous,kind, understading of the person.

The Ideal relationship with me and my doctor is mainly just with with communication and were I am not treated as just a patient, but more as a friend of the doctor. And one who can understand the pain or struggle.

Based on what they know or don’t know what question should doctors know?

Doctors should know that our people sometimes use medicines that grow from the earth that it creates and that it workd perfectly. Unlike the ones that companies make that could give us side-effects.

 

Name any good or bad experience in the medical field?

The worse medical experience I had was when a doctor gave me the wrong medication and it gave me a allergic reaction and because of that I had spinal fluid built up in one area of my spinal. And had a needle stuck in my spinal to relieve that bulid up.

Western Union!!

1) I think an ideal physician patient relationship would be for the physician and patient to be able to get along and connect with each other.

2) The cultural information doctors should know about their patients is what they believe in and what their tribal cultural doesn’t allow for them to do because it’s against their beliefs.

3) The questions doctors should ask their Native patients what their beliefs are and how ask them how the doctor can work with beliefs to make the Native patient comfortable.

4) I’ve known my friends mom who had a bad experience with one of her old physicians he talked bad about her son and the sons father. She said it was more hurtful because the father was no longer with them. They do not use that physician anymore.
