Abstract

 

 

 

The doctor-patient relationship has changed and it is necessary to carry out a critical reflection on the health-disease processes in the different sets where they take place to develop a new sanitary culture. In this context, Bioethics and its principles favor a different way of understanding the doctor-patient relationship, where the right the patient has as a person with autonomy in taking decisions about his health is privileged, and it is recognized the a shared responsibility that takes into consideration the strike of ethic, psychological, economic, cultural, social and biological factors on medical and health care. The contribution of Philosophy, Bioethics, and Medical Ethics is necessary to investigate and study the doctor-patient relationship in its different dimensions: ethic, medical, social and moral; strengthening the physicians’ ethic and legal bases, achieving them to be  able of analyzing making propositions leading to the solution of conflicts and dilemmas generated with the development, knowledge innovation and the application of technology in human people and all the rest of living beings
