Die dokter-pasient rolverwantskap


J.A.L. Theron

Abstract

Certain important aspects in the doctor-patient relationship are sociologically approached. Initial definition of illness, its acceptance by the patient and evaluation by the doctor are analysed, stressing the importance of consultation, freedom of choice of physician and the role played by third persons, especially referring to doctors attached to organisations and patients belonging to health schemes.
