"I have utilized The Patient Education Institute computerized teaching programs for the past seven and one half years. It is automatically part of our pre-operative protocol that we incorporate at the same time as pre-admission testing. These excellent programs augment the patients’ comprehension of informed consent and give them another opportunity to ask questions of a clinical team member. As a group, our philosophy is that increased patient knowledge leads to less anxiety, decreased perceived pain and better compliance; which all equal a successful surgical outcome. It is true, that the more a patient understands, the better he will take responsibility for his recovery. The programs are efficient, easy to understand and user friendly."
