The objective of this study is to explore and describe general practitioners\u2019 experiences and attitudes towards cyberchondria patients as well as strategies to stabilize affected patients. Following a\u00a0qualitative approach, oral personal semi-standardized interviews with general practitioners (<jats:italic>N<\/jats:italic>\u202f=\u200938) in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany, were conducted in 2019. In the course of a\u00a0content analysis, one can see that most interviewees see the emergence of Internet-related health anxieties as an increasing problem in everyday care. Affected patients not only show marked levels of doubt and nervousness as well as hypersensitivity to their own state of health, but also low confidence in the physician. In addition to compliance-related difficulties, the high need for advice and the demand for further diagnostics are regarded as major problems. Various approaches were identified by which general practitioners respond to unsettled patients (more consultation time, recommendation of reputable websites, information double-checking, expanded history questionnaire, additional psychosocial training).<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1007\/s10354-020-00777-8","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,8,7]],"date-time":"2020-08-07T14:02:54Z","timestamp":1596808974000},"page":"329-339","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["General practitioners\u2019 challenges and strategies in dealing with Internet-related health anxieties\u2014results of a\u00a0qualitative study among primary care physicians in Germany","Herausforderungen f\u00fcr Allgemein\u00e4rzte und Strategien im Umgang mit internetbedingten Gesundheits\u00e4ngsten \u2013 Ergebnisse einer qualitativen Studie bei \u00c4rzten der Grundversorgung in Deutschland"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"170","author":[{"given":"Julian","family":"Wangler","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Michael","family":"Jansky","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,8,7]]},"reference":[{"issue":"1\u20132","key":"777_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"24","DOI":"10.1016\/j.pec.2005.10.006","volume":"63","author":"M McMullan","year":"2006","unstructured":"McMullan\u00a0M.
