Attentive medicine® with Dr. Fatou Mbow

Attentive Medicine® is an approach to healthcare that views symptoms and suffering as meaningful signals to be explored rather than simply problems to be eliminated. It seeks to understand what affects a person's vitality, wellbeing, and capacity for healing by considering the wider context of their life, relationships, environment, and lived experience.As a non-interventional practice, Attentive Medicine® is based on careful observation, attentive listening, and thoughtful inquiry. Consultations provide space to explore physical symptoms, fatigue, pain, anxiety, stress, and emotional distress, while seeking to understand the factors that may contribute to health or illness.The aim is not only to address symptoms, but also to help individuals develop a deeper understanding of the conditions that support health, resilience, and healing.
