The interviewer is trying to get an idea of the volume of patients you're used to seeing regularly and a better understanding of the pace you're comfortable with. Describe the number of patients you typically work with in a day or week and describe the patient mix (new or existing patients and age demographics) and a general overview of the services you would provide to them.

"Working in the hospital setting, I typically see about 10-15 patients per day. These appointments could be full assessments, regular follow-ups, or one-time education sessions. There have been busier periods where I would see 20 or so patients a day, so I'm also comfortable in a higher-volume setting and feel I can still provide quality care and education, even with that volume."
