The Fifteen Minute Hour is well-established as a classic text, providing invaluable support for primary care practitioners aiming to increase patient satisfaction without adding significantly to the length of a visit. This sixth edition continues to emphasise a patient-centred approach to help practitioners enhance the therapeutic relationship with their patients. With a renewed focus on wellness and health promotion, the book offers simple and effective techniques to solve or prevent psychological and behavioural problems manifested in the consultation. The Fifteen Minute Hour has become essential reading around the world, and this sixth edition is completely updated with brand new case material based on real-world consultations, additional techniques for managing chronic conditions including pain, and new references substantiating the efficacy of the authors’ methods.

The book continues to expound on the BATHE concept (Background situation, patient Affect, what is most Troubling for the patient, how the patient is Handling the problem, and the physician's Empathy). Chapters discuss understanding the context of the office visit and the social aspects of the patient-physician interaction; how to promote wellness during the visit; pearls for brief counseling sessions; managing difficult patients; and wrapping up the visit and integrating treatments.
The time constraints in modern outpatient care have become onerous and this is a valuable resource in developing personal strategies to maximize clinicians' time with patients, to stay on focus, and to minimize the risk of clinician burnout.
