Summary

The goal of this project is to test the effects of the Patient Preference Scale as the basis for a clinical intervention for role negotiation in breast cancer surgery decisions and the Patient Perception Scale to measure role concordance. The investigators hypothesize that better role concordance will be achieved with a simple provider-based intervention. In the first half of the study, providers will be blind to the patient's preferred role. In the second half, providers will be made aware of the preferred role prior to the encounter and will have a brief conversation with the patient about their desired role in the decision making process.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Patient Preference in Treatment Decision Making

The roles are divided into two active roles, a collaborative (or shared) role, and two passive roles in the Patient Preference scale questionnaire. Once the questionnaire is administered, the patient will then proceed to original surgical appointment. The provider is informed of the patient's preferred role and has a discussion with them patient about this in the intervention group, but not in the control group.
