In Critical Decisions, physician and bioethicist Peter Ubel explores the complex dynamics that shape medical choices. Drawing on his experience on both sides of the stethoscope, Ubel reveals how communication gaps and unseen pressures can steer treatment plans off course.

Through real patient stories, behavioral science research, and candid anecdotes, readers gain insight into factors—from medical jargon to emotional stress—that influence decision making in clinical settings.

This guide offers practical tools to:

  • Clarify treatment options: Break down risks and benefits in plain language.
  • Enhance dialogue: Ask focused questions and share concerns effectively.
  • Make confident choices: Use a structured approach to weigh options together.

Whether facing routine screenings or life-altering interventions, this book equips patients and doctors to partner more effectively and achieve better health outcomes.
