What the Timeonline says makes a good patient... Fair article; however, they forgot to mention patient self advocacy.

What I think additionally makes a good patient, at least in terms of the patient theirself, is one that watches their back for medical errors.Boy, oh boy how do I know after getting burned with a misdiagnosis. See why Doctors hate being patients, very interesting article on that concerning medical errors etc...
