TRANSCRIPT:
I often think about the way that I interact with my patient. I learn to make sure I include things.
Smoking cessation is a part of what I talk about.
Cholesterol is something that I talk about.
Diet and health is a part of what I talk about.
Add PrEP to your list and you're gonna find that it's easier and easier.
And, what you find is, as you discuss PrEP more and more, you will learn more and more about how to help your patients.
And, I think that that's what we're all in this together to do.
