Medicine's crises
pp. 1-28
Abstract
In this chapter, I examine the quality-of-care and professionalism crises and conventional attempts, especially in terms of evidence-based and patient-centered medicine, to resolve them. In contrast to these attempts, I introduce the notion of virtuous physician and briefly explore its potential for addressing these crises.
