Are You Listening?

Ready for your first day as a doctor?

Welcome a patient into your office and listen as they describe their problem - you'll need as much information as possible if you're going to choose the right treatment.

🚨 PING! 🚨

What's that? Oh, you'll also be facing a barrage of notifications throughout the appointment - work emails, messages from friends, family & colleagues, and breaking news stories of all kinds. 

✉️ 💬 📰

Check these at your own risk - your patient's voice will become muffled as you do and you could miss a crucial detail from them... but maybe it's worth it if you're checking out a new patient study or recommendation from a colleague? 

That's for you to decide - good luck!

🖱️ How to Play 🖱️

Use your mouse to click on the buttons at the top to switch between emails, messages, news stories, and focus mode.

Click on the post-it note & type anything you want to remember.

Use the treatment picker to choose the treatment you'll recommend to your patient at the end of the session.
