As the examiner, you may not always be correct, but questioning yourself and seeking confirmation from others when necessary will serve to assure your reliability. Showing that you are uncomfortable with your skills can make the patient feel uncomfortable and see you as unreliable. Believing that you must always be correct will not enhance your reliability as an examiner. A person should never be prejudged, because this can interfere with the examination and findings.
