Virtuous Physician: Indonesian Perspective
Journal Title: Annals of Bioethics & Clinical Applications - Year 2021, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Physicians are virtuous profession because they deal with life and death and especially with vulnerable persons. It is a humanity profession. To be good physicians need to have high standard of compassion and care (virtue). Medical virtues have to be taught in the faculty of medicine so that the alumni have virtuous character. In their lives as physician, there are many regulations to maintain the application of virtue in their services. Unfortunately, now the erosion of virtues becomes more apparent. Some physicians are more profit-oriented rather than humanity-oriented.
