#79 | Cynthia Mini: What is Medical Rhetoric?

Send us a Text Message.

Medical Rhetoric involves language designed to have a persuasive or impressive effect on its audience, but often lacks sincerity or meaningful content. How can you tell when your obstetrician or medical provider is using rhetoric to persuade, discourage or manipulate you into going along with a particular course of action without first offering you any information or data that would be useful in your decision-making?  

Share your stories of rhetoric with us @downtobirthshow on Instagram or at www.DownToBirthShow.com.
