Doctor Love

Yeah, we said it. For the three patients featured in this POZ Focus, love isn’t too strong a word to describe their relationships with their doctors. 

Listening without judgment and proposing solutions, doctors partnered with them not only to deal with HIV, depression, fatigue and lipodystrophy, but to achieve the foundation of wellness they needed to achieve their dreams. This POZ Focus—the second in a two-part series about feeling good and communicating with your doctor—is about getting the most out of this all-important partnership.
