👋🏻 Hey guys! In this video I run through how to take a patient history. This video is a collection of thing's I've learned during my time throughout medical school and from my time spend on hospital wards. I hope you find this video helpful in practicing your history taking technique. It has a lot of information I wish I had a couple of years ago.

Please remember, I am a medical student, NOT a doctor, and I am making this video simply to pass on the information which I have found helpful throughout medical school and which has helped me. This video is not a golden rulebook for history taking, nor the best way to do it, it's my way of doing it.
