What Is a "Doctor?".
- Authors
Flower, Joe
- Abstract
The article discusses the scrutiny and the changes on the physician's judgment on health care systems in the U.S. Physicians, both family practitioners and specialists, are increasingly building teams focused on specific problems and evidence-based medicine, which is now becoming more accepted by the people in diagnosing health problems. Furthermore, the new scrutiny, tools, and teamwork, constitute together a shift in medicine from an art into something approaching a true science, the beginning of a whole new period in medical care.
