Ineffective communications in medical institutions is a major obstacle to achieving public health. This implies an urgent need to improve the activities of medical organizations in matters relating to the resolution of conflicts arising during medical care. An effective solution to the problem is long overdue, so the purpose of this work was to study the features of the use of socionic typology in medical organizations to improve interpersonal interaction. The key role in this study is assigned to intertype relationships. Knowledge of the mechanisms of influence on the info type can considerably increase treatment efficiency and speed up the healing process. The doctor who understands the socionic structure of his mentality is able to realize and thereby supervise his state and his actions. If he feels irritation or discomfort, he should understand both the internal and external causes of this condition. A person who is aware of himself and the interlocutor can eliminate the source of the conflict or avoid it. In many cases in order to compose yourself you only need a comprehension of the situation. Socionic thinking gives the person more confidence.
