Tuesday, 15 July, 2025
Like any relationship, the effort to maintain a therapeutic and respective connection between provider and patient takes effort and time. And like any connection between two parties, the relationship can reach a point of disruption or challenge. Ideally, working through the rough patches is the desire. Circumstances may reach a point though where the differences are too far apart, the bond broken and mutual respect lost. All efforts to resolve the matter have been exhausted. As the song goes “breaking up is hard to do." In this episode, we delve into the ethical, legal and practical aspects of ending the physician-patient relationship. Healthcare professionals will gain insights into best practices, guidelines and strategies to ensure a respectful and smooth transition. We'll explore ways to minimize risks while upholding the highest standards of patient care.
