Abstract

As medical conditions have improved, doctor-patient conflicts and even disputes have become one of major social problems that affect the Chinese health care system. The satisfaction of patients with medical institutions and staff is decreasingly low. Doctors and patients are moving away from the previous simplicity and harmony in their interaction and have turned into opposites with many hidden conflicts and risks. The author summarizes the current situation and causes of the relationship between doctors and patients in China, and finds that doctors and patients, the media and the government are all factors that cause and intensify doctor-patient conflicts. This article will further discuss the responses to improve such relationship, and believes that only when the above all parties can cooperate with each other to strengthen the development of humanity, the possibility of the doctor-patient conflicts can be fundamentally reduced.
