Impact on the Patient-Physician Relationship

Emerging technologies can fundamentally alter the dynamic between patients and physicians. For instance, telehealth consultations may lack the personal touch of face-to-face interactions, potentially affecting the quality of care. Similarly, reliance on AI for diagnostic or treatment recommendations could erode trust in the physician’s expertise. Navigating these changes while maintaining the integrity of the patient-physician relationship is a significant ethical challenge.
