Professor Dr. Md. Shahinul Alam

In general, when a patient visits the hospital or the doctor, they bring a lot of pain and sickness. As well as facing several costs. The patient brings a lot of hope to the doctor, the doctor will give him priority, see him for a long time, talk, explain what happened to him, the patient’s privacy will be properly protected and he will get that doctor in the future physical illness – usually, all patients have these expectations.

Many patients come to a doctor. He sees, treats, and heals many sick people every day. When the patient waits for the doctor, there is a lot of hope in the mind. He has a dream of recovery and he also thinks that the doctor will cure him on the instructions of the superior. Patients believe that recovery depends on the doctor’s treatment.

When the question of rights arises, the patient has the full right to receive adequate time from the physician for diagnosis and examination, to have a clear idea of ​​the disease and its treatment and cost, and to be treated with respect. Patients need to know about their rights. Violence or arrogance does not bring any benefits in defending their rights but awareness and systematic practice can set a positive example.

In the end, people will say that this great profession of doctor should not be tainted in any way. This profession should be kept in check to improve the quality of medical services in the country because medical services are an important issue for us. Physician care involves saving lives. No one has the right to play tricks on life. Among the physicians, integrity, humanity, virtue, dutifulness – these are the qualities that should be worshiped more. That is what many doctors do. For this, of course, some of your doctors have had to give their lives during the recent Corona crisis. That is the medical profession. And it should be so. The distance between doctor and patient has been created due to the patient and the patient’s relatives, physicians in the field. It is necessary to reduce this distance and maintain a friendly relationship between the physician and the patient. The doctor, the patient, and the patient’s relatives will do it.
