What is an important area of care patients are often not aware of and medical professionals don't have time to address in the average appointment?

Sexual health, STDs: Almost any doctor will have his or her own views on this, and there are many such areas. In my opinion and experience, among the most common are sexual health in general and STDs in particular.

Diet: Most MDS have little training and little time to discuss a proper diet with patients, especially specific to their situation. Exercise and what is appropriate exercise for each individual patient is also lacking.
