Respect patient confidentiality


When it comes to the medical profession, trust is paramount. Photo: Istock

Trust is the basis of the patient- doctor relationship. It allows patients to share important and sensitive information with the doctor to enable the latter to provide appropriate care for the patient.

Since time immemorial, the patient has had a right to expect non-disclosure of personal information obtained during the course of a doctor’s professional duties, unless consent is given.
