Abstract
⺠“Assembly line” treatment and disregard for patient knowledge contributed to hemodialysis patient-clinician tension. ⺠Patients distrusted clinicians who did not respect them as uniquely knowledgeable about their body, illness, and life. ⺠Patients viewed adversarial interactions with clinicians as an unfortunate but necessary feature of illness management.
