Abstract
Uncertainty and complexity remains prevalent throughout the practice of medicine. Primary care physicians often experience uncertainty and complexity in their practice because they encounter the wide variety of patients. Coping with uncertainty and complexity is one of the important competence of a physician, and it is one of the attributes of medical professionalism. Tackling uncertainty and complexity is a strong learning chance for physicians and it makes them grow. Using Cynefin framework and good doctor-patient communication with shared decision making are effective strategies for handling medical uncertainty and complexity.
